CONTROVERSIES
14 March 2019 - UEFA Europa League Round of 16 leg 2 - Arsenal 3:0 (agg. 4:3) Stade Rennais. Controversy rating: 7/10
Treimanis' AR2 made a mistake and allowed Arsenal's goal that was scored after an offside (as The Referee found out in an Offside Investigation) The match ended 3-2 (agg. 4-3), so the mistake didn't determine which team went on in the play-offs as Arsenal would anway have more away goals. MATCH ANALYSIS
4 September 2017 - 2018 FIFA World Cup European Qualifiers - Poland 3:0 Kazakhstan. Controversy rating: 7/10
The referee disallowed a goal scored by Lewandwski as he thought that the ball didn't cross the gal line, althougt, as you can see below, it did. Of course, there was no VAR or GLT in use. Fortunately, this incident didn't directly impact the winner of the match.
Not a top-flight match, local controversy. 1st December 2018 - Northern Irish Premier League - Glentoran 2:2 Crusaders. Controversy rating: 3/10
Treimanis refereed this match due to taking part in an exchange scheme. A mass fight started in the end of the first half, after what a red card to each team was shown. 5 minuter earlier a red car was shown to a Crusader player. Both teams were very unsatissfied with the refereeing. MATCH PAGE
From BBC (all rights to BBC):
Three players were sent off in the first half as Glentoran drew 2-2 at home to Irish Premiership champions Crusaders in a fiery Belfast derby.
Latvian referee Andris Treimanis, doing the game as part of an IFA exchange scheme, dismissed Crues defender Kyle Owens for two yellow card offences.
Then, when a mass brawl developed, Rory Patterson of Crusaders and Glentoran's John McGuigan were also dismissed.
The melee came after a tackle by Glens' Marcus Kane on Paul Heatley.
Players and officials got involved in heated exchanges on the touchline
Paul Heatley and Rory Patterson scored for Crusaders with Glentoran twice equalising through John Herron and Robbie McDaid.
Officials from both clubs were unhappy with the 33-year-old referee Treimanis, who has officiated at two Champions League matches this season.
But they could face further punishment when Irish Football Association disciplinary chiefs investigate the unseemly scenes which happened just before half-time.
"That was the worst refereeing performance I have seen in 30 years of being in football," said Crusaders manager Stephen Baxter.
Kyle Owens was the first player sent off at the Oval
"You really had to be here to see it to believe it.
"I blame the IFA for organising these exchange programmes.
"I don't blame the referee, in fact I felt sorry for him in the end.
"It was farcical and it's not fair on the teams. Our association needs to apologise to both clubs. It was embarrassing.
Latvian officials took charge of the Irish Premiership match between Belfast clubs Glentoran and Crusaders
Glentoran manager Ronnie McFall said: "When you bring referees in from different countries they are not used to our culture and it is difficult for them - that was evident from start to finish.
"It was disappointing for both sides.
"I thought we were better than Crusaders in the first half especially, but if you had have offered me a draw before the game I would have been happy with it."
