Refereeing career

In 2010, Raczkowski began officiating in the Ekstraklasa. His first match as referee was on 8 August 2010 between Śląsk Wrocław and Jagiellonia Białystok.[3] In 2013, he was put on the FIFA referees list. His first match as a FIFA referee came on 26 March 2013 between Germany and Bulgaria in the 2013 UEFA European Under-17 Championship elite round. Raczkowski refereed his first UEFA club competition match on 18 July 2013 in the Europa League second qualifying round between Irtysh Pavlodar and Široki Brijeg. He officiated his first senior international match on 27 May 2014 between Japan and Cyprus. Raczkowski was selected as an official for the 2015 UEFA European Under-17 Championship, his first national team tournament as referee. In March 2016, he was selected as an additional assistant referee for UEFA Euro 2016.[4][5] His first competitive international as referee was on 10 October 2016 between Gibraltar and Belgium in 2018 FIFA World Cup qualification. In 2019, he was selected to officiate in the 2019 Polish SuperCup between Piast Gliwice and Lechia Gdańsk.[6] On Dec.30 2021 he was the referee for the Galatasaray vs. Marseille soccer game. The visitors, Galatasaray where sprinting to the penalty area, the midfield player Olimpiu Moruţan was trying to shoot the ball to the goal but Raczkowski was blocking his way after that Moruţan was passing to ball to his team player who was dying to make a shoot too but Raczkowski whistles for the first half and stopped the game immediately. Other suspicious things like this happened during the first half. He was obviously taking the sides of the home players, Marseille. Every time ‘Gala’ had a free kick the referee was giving the chance the Marseilles. He was being unprofessional and approached the game with a emotional connection. Raczkowski has officiated matches in various other countries, including Japan (in the 2014 J.League Division 1), Moldova (for the 2016 Moldovan Cup Final) and Saudi Arabia (in the Saudi Professional League and King Cup).[7]
