Claus Bo Larsen will officiate the UEFA Champions League clash between Manchester United and Arsenal. Larsen, 43, will be in charge of the semi-final first leg this Wednesday at Old Trafford. The Danish referee, who is fluent in English, will be remembered by United fans as the man who sent off Paul Scholes in the Super Cup defeat to Zenit St Petersburg in August - a decision Red Devils boss Sir Alex Ferguson did not contest. Arsenal fans may remember him as the man in the middle of their 0-0 draw with AC Milan last season. Larsen is a UEFA Elite Category referee who has taken charge of 17 Champions League fixtures and seven Uefa Cup games in his career.
