Only finished matches count, and only the matches we have the numbers for.
Compare referees
The fairest referee comparison uses the averages per match (Ø), because some referees simply take charge of more matches than others. Pick a team in the filter to see how strict each referee is on that team; the Team columns then only count the cards, fouls and penalties of that team.
