Abstract
The 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa brought the usual complaints about the standard of refereeing. This article examines the role of the referee through the existentialist philosophy of Jean-Paul Sartre, then draws some parallels with the role of the judge.
Keywords: refereeing, legal reasoning, judicial ethics, authenticity, existentialism, Sartre
