Tschenscher (born 5 October 1928) is a German former football referee.
Born in Mannheim, he took up refereeing in 1948 and by 1953 he was part
of the German Football Association's group of top referees. Within
another five years, he was promoted to the FIFA list of international
referees. In October 1959, he refereed the second leg of Yugoslavia's
1960 European Nations' Cup first round win over Bulgaria. In September
1962, he took charge of the replay of the 1962 European Cup Winners' Cup
Final, in which Atlético Madrid beat Fiorentina 3-0. By 1966,
Tschenscher was one of the top referees in Europe, a fact reflected in
his appointment to the first leg of the 1965-66 European Cup semi-final
between Partizan and Manchester United, and then a group stage match
between Brazil and Bulgaria at the 1966 FIFA World Cup. The following
season, he was named as the referee for the 1967 European Cup Final
between Celtic and Internazionale.
