French referee Stéphanie Frappart has been tapped for an upcoming event.

After facing a wave of criticism in France, after her decisions during the match between Lyon and Valenciennes in the Coupe de France, Stéphanie Frappart was able to bounce back to silence the critics. Better still, the French referee also maintains good international ratings.

Stéphanie Frappart has in fact been selected to referee the final of the Greek Cup, which will take place this Saturday, May 25. This match will pit Panathinaikos against Aris FC.

A high-risk match

“For the first time in the history of the Greek Cup, a woman will referee the last match of the competition”we can read in an official press release published by the Greek Federation this Tuesday.

The Frenchwoman’s refereeing should be scrutinized since this final is classified as a high-risk match. The match will also be played behind closed doors for security reasons.
