January 15, according to a report from “Beijing Youth Daily”, Fu Ming is law enforcement for the second time in the World Cup
Club Cup, have the opportunity to impact the next World Cup law enforcement qualifications.
The 2022 Club World Cup will be held in Morocco from February 1st to 11th, 2023. FIFA has confirmed that referee Ma Ning, assistant referees Zhang Cheng, Zhou Fei, and video assistant referee (VAR) Fu Ming will serve as referees.
Members of the Chinese international referee team participated in the law enforcement of this competition.
This is the first time for Chinese referees to collectively enforce the Club World Cup in groups. It is also the second time for Fu Ming to enforce the Club World Cup after he went to Doha, Qatar as a VAR referee to enforce the current Club World Cup in 2019.
In 2022, Ma Ning joined hands with assistant referees Shi Xiang and Cao Yi to participate in the law enforcement work of the World Cup in Qatar.
At the beginning of January this year, Ma Ning also joined hands with Fu Ming, Zhang Cheng, and Zhou Fei to go to Basra, Iraq, to enforce the 2023 Gulf Cup football match, and has already had experience in law enforcement in multiple rounds of group matches.
The four Chinese referees participating in the law enforcement of the Gulf Cup and the new Club World Cup are all elite referees trained by the AFC.
Since Ma Ning will be 44 years old this year, according to international football practice, it is impossible to enforce the World Cup again.
However, the relatively young “post-80s” Fu Ming, Zhang Cheng, and Zhou Fei still have the opportunity to compete for the next World Cup law enforcement qualification.
Fu Ming has a better chance. Before that, he not only served as the chief referee to enforce the AFC Champions League, the Asian Cup and other major competitions, but also used the VAR referee as a VAR referee to enforce many football matches including the Tokyo Olympic Games (men’s and women’s matches).
major football tournament.
FIFA’s ability to recommend him to enforce the Gulf Cup and select him to enforce the Club World Cup for two consecutive years is also a recognition of his ability.
According to the plan, Ma Ning and other four Chinese referees will leave for China immediately after the Gulf Cup. They are expected to leave for Morocco at the end of this month.
