Men’s Football Stephanie Frappart officiates men’s game

French referee Stephanie Frappart, the first female referee for a men's Champions League game

STEPHANIE FRAPPART made history on Wednesday after becoming the first female referee to take charge of a men’s Champions League game.

The 36-year-old Frenchwoman officiated Juventus’s 3-0 win over Dynamo Kiev in Turin.

Frappart was already the first female referee for a major Uefa competition match when Liverpool beat Chelsea on penalties in the Super Cup in Istanbul last year.

She was part of an all-female officiating team with assistants Manuela Nicolosi from Italy and Ireland’s Michelle O’Neill.

Frappart was also in charge for Leicester’s 3-0 Europa League win over Zorya Luhansk in October and the Women’s World Cup final between the United States and the Netherlands in 2019.
