This Argentinian is already hot for the World Cup in Qatar which begins in two weeks (from November 20 to December 18).
But he is not a playing partner of Lionel Messi.
At 40, Facundo Tello has been selected to referee the matches of the competition.
And the teams where the man with the whistle will officiate will have to be wary of it.
Because the interested party seems to draw red cards as quickly as his shadow.
Sunday on the occasion of the Argentine Champions Trophy at the Parque La Pedrera stadium in San Luis between Boca Juniors and Racing Club, finally won (2-1) after extra time by the latter, Facundo Tello distributed the red cards as d others multiply the loaves.

Long committed but with a good state of mind - opener of the score of Briasco (19th) for Boca Juniors and equalizer of Rojas (22nd) -, the match swings into another dimension in the last moments.
The first to see red are Sebastían Villa (Boca) and Johan Carbonero (Racing Club) at 90 + 5. The two teams therefore start the extension at ten against ten.
But the tension will not stop increasing over the minutes.
After Alan Varela (Boca) expelled in the 100th, the meeting enters the irrational after the goal - of the victory - of Carlos Alcaraz.
Entering the hour mark, the namesake of the tennis player, also 19, celebrated a little too ostentatiously, taking off his jersey and chasing the audience.
An attitude that angers Boca players.
The players rushed towards the striker, “grabbing him by the ear”… A general fight broke out and the referee then issued seven new red cards in 5 minutes, including 5 for Boca.
The last is distributed at the 120th + 10 for the former Marseille player Darío Benedetto.

"Being champion is a very nice feeling," Alcaraz said simply after the match.
To be able to play my part by scoring a goal is very special.
My family was there, in the stadium.
It's perfect.
“With seven suspended, Boca will have to find solutions for the opening of the championship and the defense of its title acquired two weeks ago on January 29.
After the World Cup where we will have a watchful eye on a referee named Facundo Tello.
