Nick Walsh will referee the European Under-21 Championship semi-final between Germany and France, despite recent controversies.
The Scottish referee, alongside assistants Dan McFarlane and Calum Spence, and Andrew Dallas on VAR, was praised for officiating group games at the tournament in Slovakia.
Their commendable performances have earned them a spot in the last four clashes.
However, Walsh's appointment comes just a month after his contentious decision in the Scottish Premiership match between Rangers and Hibs.
Camera evidence indicated a goal by Nicolas Raskin, but Walsh and his team failed to award it.

This decision led to Rangers legend John 'Bomber' Brown receiving punishment from the Scottish FA for a comment about corruption in Scottish football.
The SFA's KMI panel later ruled that the goal should have been awarded.
Other controversial decisions involving Walsh include the sending off of Mohamed Diomande for a 'slap' at Dundee United, which was later rescinded.
Despite this, Walsh continues to officiate at a high level, with his team receiving further assignments in the European Championship.
Their performance in this semi-final will be closely watched given the recent controversies.
