After Maria Sulley Ferrieri Capote was chosen to oversee the match between Sassuolo and its visitor, Salernitana, to become the first woman to manage a match in the tournament, the eighth round of the Italian League is witnessing a historic occurrence for the first time.
The encounter between Sassuolo and Salernitana, planned for next Sunday, in the eighth round of the championship, will be steered by Maria Sulley Ferrieri Capote, according to an announcement made by the Italian Referees Committee today, Wednesday.
Maria Capote reportedly received a promotion to the elite Italian leadership in July.
The head of the Referees’ Association, Alfredo Trentalang, remarked, “It is not an average day; I am deeply touched.
Maria Sule will play her maiden match in the Italian league based on merit, he continued during a news conference. Maria Sule has earned this, which is regarded as a victory for the entire refereeing body because we don’t grant favours to anyone.
Ferreri Capote, 32, began refereeing seven years ago and was promoted to the third tier five years later. Last year, a few months after Maria Marotta became the first female referee to supervise a Serie B match in Italy, he refereed a Serie B game.
Maria Sole, the first woman to captain an Italian League game, accomplished a historic feat.
