Dear futsal friends,

the third day of the Futsalplanet Awards, the most traditional prizes of futsal, is here. Can you hear the "sound of whistles"? Today we're going to announce the winner of a delicate but absolutely invaluable category like the referees one definitely is.

Quick (and extremely hard) decisions in such a short time: being a futsal referee is a tough challenge that clearly shows how skilled are the best representatives of this category.

So, moment of the truth. Who's the one? So many whistles are improving all the time in a tremendous way but... here comes an impressive double: Fernando Gutierrez Lumbreras is the winner of the Best Referee of the World category for the AGLA Futsal Awards 2013. Who will be next? Enhorabuena Fernando!
