No semi for Webb, but that's no bad thing

UEFA has appointed referees Cuneyt Cakir and Stephane Lannoy to handle the European Championship semifinals matches. UEFA says Turkish referee Cakir will handle the Spain vs. Portugal match on Wednesday at Donetsk, Ukraine.

 Lannoy of France will referee the Germany vs. Italy game on Thursday in Warsaw, Poland.
 Both will be refereeing their third matches at the tournament.
There's no semi final for Howard Webb but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Last four refs do not usually get to do the final, as the games are so close together. Webb is probably competing with Slovenia's Dumir Skomina for the final match.
