Maria Sulley Ferreri Capote will be the first woman to officiate a Serie A match, the Italian Referees Association confirmed on Wednesday.

According to press reports, Vieri Capote, who was promoted to the elite Italian referees last July, will lead the match between Sassuolo and its guest, Salernitana, on Sunday.

“It is not an ordinary day, I am very touched,” said Alfredo Trentalang, president of the Referees’ Association.

He added during a press conference, “Maria Sule will play her first match in Serie A on the basis of her merit. We don’t give a preference to anyone, Maria Sule has deserved this, which is a success for the jury as a whole.”
