Qatar World Cup group stage will end in two match days. Recently, FIFA announced the referee candidates for the last few group stages. Unfortunately, Chinese referee Ma Ning did not get the opportunity to urge the World Cup as the referee, which basically means that Ma Ning failed to enforce the law as the referee.
Although there are many games in the knockout round in this World Cup, Ma Ning has basically confirmed that he will not make a debut in the knockout round. According to commentator Yu Xinmiao's analysis, the selection of referees in the World Cup knockout stage is very strict, and the referees who have obtained law enforcement qualifications in the knockout stage will definitely make their debut in the group stage. Ma Ning, who did not appear as the referee, obviously would not appear in the knockout stage.
Tomorrow early morning (December 2), a female referee will appear in the German team's game against Costa Rica. She is Flapal from France. This is the first time that a female referee has enforced the law in the history of the men's World Cup, creating history. It is very regrettable that Ma Ning did not obtain the qualification to be a referee in the end.
In the previous World Cup group stage, Ma Ning appeared as the fourth official five times. The World Cup also left a scene of Ma Ning talking and laughing with world-renowned coaches such as Deschamps and Van Gaal on the sidelines. On the last day of the group stage, Ma Ning will be the fourth official law enforcement match for the 6th time, and he will appear on the sidelines of the Brazilian team against Cameroon.
The last time there was a Chinese referee enforced the World Cup, which dated back to 2002. At that time, Lu Jun, the Chinese Golden Whistle, enforced the two games between Mexico vs Croatia and Polish VS US team as the referee in the group stage of the South Korean and Japanese World Cup. In the match between Mexico and Croatia, Lu Jun showed his first red card in the World Cup.
