Other officials to assist Pitana are Alireza Faghani and Reza Sokhandan, both of Iran, as Reserve Assistants in the match slated for Friday. For the second quarter-final match involving Belgium and Brazil in Kazan, Serbian Referee Milorad Mazic, has been picked to be in charge of affairs.

conflict of interest, he shouldnt have been picked for such game, 2 conspiracy theory; 1- he might favour Uruguay because France defeated his Nation 2- he might favour France so Uruguay doesnt win the world cup and become a Champion while they are of the same continent. FIFA no dey use their head most times, or probably let money decides what the head should do. 3 Likes |

Using a South American referee to officiate a match involving a South American Team is foolish and idiotic. France defeated his home country as well. Are these people blind or what? It's just like using a Zambian referee to officiate a match involving England and Nigeria. |

Anyways it's not new, afterall a Senegalese ref was incharge of the match between Belgium vs Japan and it was Japan that did "official" match fixing to send Senegal out of the WC. busterr: |
