Szymon Marciniak to lead Referees for World Cup final
FIFA has confirmed that Szymon Marciniak will referee Sunday’s World Cup final between Argentina and France.
Marciniak has already overseen games involving both finalists in Qatar, taking charge of France’s 2-1 group-stage win over Denmark and Argentina’s last-16 victory by the same score against Australia.
The Polish official, who also refereed games at the 2018 World Cup in Russia, has shown just five yellow cards across his two fixtures at this year’s tournament and is yet to give a single penalty or red card.
Other assistants are also Polish nationals ; Powel Sokolnicki(Assistant Referee 1) , Tomasz listkiewicz(Assistant Referee 2) and Ismail Elfath(fourth official) only from England.
They will be supported by another team of officials from the VAR control room.
