#3 Youngest referee to officiate in a World Cup
The record for the youngest referee to officiate in the FIFA World Cup is held by Spain's Juan Gardeazabal. At the 1958 FIFA World Cup, Gardeazabal refereed in Paraguay's 3-7 drubbing in the hands of France. He was only 24 years and 193 days old at the time of officiating and had inscribed his name in the history books.
He would also be the referee in the quarter-final match between France and Northern Ireland. Coincidentally, France also won that game with a four-goal margin (4-0).
Ricardo Montero will be the youngest referee in the 2018 FIFA World Cup. But, even he is 32 years old. Michael Oliver became the youngest Premier League referee in the 2013 League Cup final when he was 25 years and 182 days old.
But, can anyone break the record of Juan Gardeazabal? We highly doubt it.
