As officially known, FIFA the World Cup teams were allowed not to meet until November 14, just six days before the start of the world. However, the concentration of arbitration for the great event in Qatar begins earlier. As Mundo Deportivo has learned, next Wednesday, November 9, all field referees, assistants and referees acting as VAR and AVAR will be summoned. All of them must be in Doha, where the refereeing headquarters are located and from where the various refereeing teams go to the matches.
A total of 36 referees from six FIFA confederations have been selected to officiate all matches at this World Cup in Qatar. Payroll where there will be, for the first time in history, up to three women. This is the French Stéphanie Frappart, who whistled at the Santiago Bernabéu in the Champions League; along with Rwandan Salima Mukansanga and Japanese Yoshimi Yamashita.
In the case of Spain, the Spanish arbitration will be represented by Mateu Lahoz as field referee in addition to the three referees present as VAR: Hernández Hernández, Ricardo de Burgos and Martínez Munuera. The three will not be able to whistle either the final league day of the week or the cup match next weekend.
Under FIFA regulations, if the main referee is unable to perform his duties, he must be replaced by a fourth official. If one of the assistant referees is unable to perform his duties, he must be replaced by the fourth official or the reserve assistant referee, if one is appointed. In this case, the FIFA Referees Committee must be informed immediately.
