Szymon Marciniak will referee the World Cup final
FIFA has confirmed that Szymon Marciniak will referee Sunday's World Cup final between Argentina and France.
Marciniak has previously overseen games involving the two finalists in Qatar, taking charge of France's 2-1 group stage win over Denmark and Argentina's round of 16 win by the same scoreline against Australia.
The Polish official, who also refereed 2018 World Cup matches in Russia, has shown just five yellow cards in his two matches at this year's tournament and is yet to give a single one penalty or red card.
Some referees have come under fire for their performances in the World Cup Round of 16, including Antonio Mateu Lahoz, who booked 15 players in Argentina's quarter-final win over the Netherlands.
The Moroccan Football Federation has filed a complaint with FIFA regarding Cesar Ramos' performance as a referee in their World Cup semi-final loss to France on Wednesday.
FIFA has also announced that Qatar's Abdulrahman Al Jassim will officiate the third-place qualifier between Croatia and Morocco on Saturday.
