László Vágner (born December 24, 1955, in Gávavencsellő) is a Hungarian former football referee.
He refereed two matches in the 1998 FIFA World Cup in France: Scotland v Norway at the Parc de Lescure in Bordeaux, and Chile v Cameroon at the Stade de la Beaujoire in Nantes which ended in controversial circumstances as he denied Cameroon two apparently clean goals and dished out two red cards to Cameroon.[1] [2] [3] [4]
