🤣 Cup madness! Player grabs referee's watch during match

Paraguayan Matías Galarza drew attention during the match against Turkey in the early hours of this Saturday (20), and not just because of the winning goal he scored in the opening minutes.

He "took" one of the watches used by the match referee and wore the device on his own wrist for a few moments.

The object fell onto the pitch during a scuffle between players from both teams near the end of the first half.

While Ivan Barton, from El Salvador, was trying to separate the players, the watch was pulled off his wrist and left lying on the grass.

See below how the "incident" unfolded:

Galarza keeps adjusting the watch and, at first, does not go to the referee to return the device

In the second half, the referee was seen wearing the watch again
