Charles George Reinier Corver (16 January 1936 – 10 November 2020) was a Dutch football referee.

[1] He was decorated twice by the Queen (Order of Orange-Nassau) and the football association (KNVB-UEFA-FIFA).

He refereed the 1982 World Cup semifinal between Germany and France in Seville, Spain, when he deemed goalkeeper Harald Schumacher's collision with Patrick Battiston to be not a foul.

[2] Battiston remained unconscious for over a minute and sustained the loss of three teeth and a damaged vertebrae.

This failure is often considered one of the worst examples of poor refereeing decisions in football.
