This appointment by the International Federation of Association Football (FIFA) confirms the prestigious status that Moroccan refereeing has achieved globally.
This important match is scheduled to take place on Sunday, June 14, at the Houston Stadium in Texas, USA, and is part of the opening round of the group stage.
