UEFA have confirmed the match officials for Tuesday’s Champions League playoff second leg between Inter Milan and Bodo/Glimt at San Siro, with Alejandro Hernandez leading an all-Spanish referee team.

The continental body have appointed an entirely Spanish refereeing team for the high-stakes tie.

Alejandro Hernandez will take charge of the match, which kicks off at 21:00 CET on February 24th.

Inter need to overturn a 3-1 first leg deficit to progress to the last 16.

Hernandez will be assisted by fellow Spaniards Diego Sanchez Rojo and José Naranjo, while José Luis Munuera has been named as fourth official.

The VAR setup is equally all-Spanish, with Carlos del Cerro Grande operating the video review system and Guillermo Cuadra Fernandez serving as assistant VAR.

It represents a significant appointment for Hernandez, who takes charge of one of the more dramatic second legs remaining in this round of the competition.

Inter will need a composed and focused performance to advance.

Indeed, they will be hoping for a similarly straightforward evening from the officials as they enjoyed at Lecce on Saturday.
