Behind top referee Jorge Larrionda, Martin Emilio Vázquez Broquetas has been Uruquay's second choice for quite a while.
He is a CONMEBOL Elite category referee.

since

Vazquez has been active on the international scene Since 2001. He has been officating Libertadores matches and World Cup preliminaries.

Beijing and South Africa

His highest honour so far must have been his election for the Olympic Games in Beijing 2008.

2010

Until Februari 2010 Martin Vazquez was on the short list of referees for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. However he did not appear on the final one, was selected anyway after Carlos Amarilla's assistant failed the test (by which Amarilla himself was excluded as well), but the Uruguayan never got to take charge of a match.

2014

At the beginning his name was not even on the first short list of the WC, but then, he was lucky again. Roberto Silvera failed the fitness test and quit to his dream of being Uruguay's WC ref. Then Dario Ubriaco got again an injury and was out several months giving Vazquez the chance of coming into the list and having, again, the big chance of refereeing in a WC.

Did you know

NO.2

In 2009 Martin Vazquez took charge of the final of the u17 World Cup between Switzerland and Nigeria. It has been alleged (by, among others, former Nigerian international player and lawyer, Adokiye Amiesimaka) that not all Nigerian players were actually under 17. Amiesimaka revealed that Nigeria's under-17 captain, Fortune Chukwudi, must be at least 9 years older than 17.
In 2005 Vázquez had to call off a Boca - Guadalajara Libertadores match at Boca's Bombonera stadium when a supporter began attacking a player, fans were hurling missiles onto the pitch and the teams started fighting amongst themselves.
In 2008 Vázquez was suspended because of some bad decisions in a Peñarol versus Danubio match. He forgot to send off Darío Rodríguez after a clear foul and missed a clear penalty in the last minute. These kind of suspensions have some routine in South America. National associations please screaming big shot club owners and journalists by suspending referees for a while. This suspension seemed not to be a delay on Vazquez career, because he still was selected for the Olympic Games at Beijing 2008.
