During the France-Spain World Cup match, cameras caught a small crucifix hanging from the whistle referee Iván Barton uses on the field.
Iván says the crucifix reflects his personal relationship with his faith which has accompanied his career.
With the eyes of the world watching, the World Cup is stressful and a tremendous responsibility. But for this referee, the first part of game-day prep wasn't phyical exercise.
