Euro 2024: Who is the referee and VAR for France v Belgium?

Glenn Nyberg.

Euro 2024 is fully alive and kicking and with the round of 16 firmly underway, France take on Belgium in the first of two games on Tuesday.

Having finished second in Group D after winning just one of their opening three games at the tournament, Didier Deschamps' side will hope to book their passage to the last eight against the less-than-convincing Belgium in Dusseldorf.

Domenico Tedesco's men have been sub-par so far and are another nation to have drawn wholesale criticism from their fans, with Kevin De Bruyne at the front of the confrontation last time out against Ukraine.

Glenn Nyberg will take charge of France v Belgium, in what will be his third game at the tournament so far. The Swedish official has overseen Romania's 3-0 victory over Ukraine and Spain's 1-0 success over Albania so far at Euro 2024.

Nbyerg has been a referee since 2008 and has been an Allsvenskan referee in Sweden since 2013. He was named an international official by FIFA in 2016.

He will be assisted across the encounter by fellow Swedish duo Mahbod Beigi and Andreas Söderkvist.
