FOR THE FIRST TIME IN HISTORY, FIFA SELECTS THREE FEMALE REFEREES FOR THE MEN'S 2022 WORLD CUP.

Three female referees have been selected to officiate at this year's Senior Men's World Cup finals, which will be held in Qatar for the first time. The female referees officiated in the UEFA Champions League, Euros, and even the African Nations Cup. AFCON, which took place earlier this year, was a development that showed an attempt to widen the role of women in gambling.

Salima Mukansanga officiated during the AFCON earlier this year in Cameroon.

One of them is Salima Mukansanga from Rwanda, who officiated during AFCON this year. She took charge of the game between Zimbabwe and Guinea. It will interest you to know that she has a degree in Nursing and Midwifery and that she is just 35 years old.

Stéphanie Frappart, who has officiated some of Europe's most prestigious matches, is also on the list.
