Serie A ref blanks female colleague in tunnel with 'we've-all-been-there-before' moment

Assistant referee Francesca Di Monte had an awkward moment in the tunnel with her colleague Juan Luca Sacchi before a Serie A game.

As both sets of teams - Lecce and Sassuolo - lined up in the tunnel with the referees, the last handshakes were exchanged.

Female referee Francesca Di Monte shook hands with one of her colleagues but when main ref Juan Luca Sacchi approached her, a handshake between the two failed.

Sacchi extended his hand to Di Monte, but it suddenly swerved in the direction of a Lecce player, leaving Di Monte in a confused state.

Whether it was intentional or not, who hasn't been on the receiving end of this awkward situation?
