Kurt Tschenscher

Kurt Waldemar Tschenscher (5 October 1928 – 13 August 2014)[1] was a German football referee.

In October 1959, he refereed the second leg of Yugoslavia's 1960 European Nations' Cup first round win over Bulgaria.

By 1966, Tschenscher was one of the top referees in Europe, a fact reflected in his appointment to the first leg of the 1965–66 European Cup semi-final between Partizan and Manchester United, and then a group stage match between Brazil and Bulgaria at the 1966 FIFA World Cup.

The following season, he was named as the referee for the 1967 European Cup final between Celtic and Internazionale.
