FA Cup Final Referees
In English football, the FA Cup Final, the deciding match of the FA Cup competition, is considered the highest domestic honour for referees to be appointed to officiate. The most recent final (2022) was refereed by Craig Pawson, with Dan Cook and Edward Smart as assistant referees; David Coote was fourth official and Paul Tierney as video assistant referee. Selection By modern tradition, individuals are appointed to referee an FA Cup Final only once, a rule that has been in practice since 1902. They may have previously appeared as an assistant referee or fourth official. However, due to the global COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the tradition was broken when Anthony Taylor became the first referee for over a century to officiate a second cup final. This was decided to allow a referee who would be officiating in a maiden final to experience the occasion as intended, with friends and family present and a stadium full of fans. In 2021, with the same crowd restrictions in place, Micha ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
