Germany will face Hungary in the final group game at EM 2021.
The referee for the game has been determined.
The DFB-Elf has no good memories of him.

EM 2021: Sergej Karassjow - referee for Hungary game has been determined
The Russian Sergei Karassjow whistles the duel.
The 42-year-old referee from Moscow is now on his second EM assignment.
Karassjow already led the match between Italy and Switzerland and had no problems with the game management when the Squadra Azurra won (3-0).
Karasjow was also used by UEFA at the 2016 European Championship and the 2018 World Cup.
Ilkay Gündogan, Matthias Ginter, Jonas Hofmann and Florian Neuhaus will know the referee well.
In the Champions League, he whistled Borussia Mönchengladbach's round of 16 second leg against Manchester City (0: 2) in the past season.
The Russian has been leading international games since 2011 and is therefore experienced.
However, the DFB team has no good memories of him.
EM 2021: Russian Karassjow whistles Germany against Hungary - not good memories
Because Karassjow led the World Cup qualifier against North Macedonia at the end of March.
Against the blatant underdog, the DFB-Elf * found it extremely difficult and ultimately lost with 1: 2.
After an offensive, shockingly harmless appearance (only two shots on goal) and defensive inadequacies, the big surprise was perfect - and Germany embarrassed.
Karassjow delivered one of his worse games in the Duisburg arena.
The 1: 1 by Gündogan in the meantime resulted from a flattering penalty.
On the other side, there was no penalty whistle after a can handball.
EM 2021: Siebert and Brych - two German referees in action
Incidentally, two German referees are also on duty at this European Championship *. Dr. Felix Brych has so far led the game between the Netherlands and Ukraine (3-2) and showed an impeccable game management in a fast, thrilling encounter. The experienced Bundesliga referee is scheduled for the game Finland against Belgium on Monday evening. Daniel Siebert has already come to two missions. The 37-year-old European Championship debutant whistled Scotland against the Czech Republic (0: 2) and Sweden against Slovakia (1: 0) - the referee acted confidently in both easy-to-manage games.
Incidentally, not only European referees are on duty at this European Championship. The Argentinian Fernando Rapallini played in the Ukraine game against North Macedonia (2-1), and he's also scheduled for the Croatia game against Scotland. The reason for this is a cooperation between South America's association CONMEBOL and UEFA. In return, the Spaniard Jesús Gil Manzano whistles games of the current Copa America. Rapallini is after the Egyptian Gamal Al-Ghandour
