Nzolo Jerome is one of the best referees in the Jupiler Pro League (Belgian league).

Of Gabonese origin, he was also the referee of the match on early August of the Champions of France Trophy between Bordeaux and PSG in Libreville.

But being one of the best does not preclude criticism. This weekend, Nzolo led the meeting Brugges-Charleroi in JPL. He excluded late in the game the Argentinean Leandro González Pirez. The later did not like and was not kind to him after the game. “This referee (Jerome Efong Nzolo) is a real disaster. On the first yellow card, I do not touch at all Refaelov. This is also the case in the second action. It was a long ball and the referee was at 50 meters from the stage. It was also often the case throughout the game. I hope he will review the images. He may realize that I do not touch any of the two players”, said the striker of Brugges in comments relayed by 7sur7.
