At noon on February 6 local time (the afternoon of the 6th Beijing time), the AFC Referee Committee officially announced the referee list of the Iranian team against the Qatar team in the second game of the semifinals of this Asian Cup. Chinese referee Fu Ming and assistant referee Zhang Cheng will serve as assistant referees and alternate referees for the competition. As a result, the Chinese referees will be involved in the enforcement of the two semi-finals, but it is worth mentioning that Ma Ning and Fu Ming will not be the referees, which means they are likely to appear in the final.
According to the selection of the AFC refereeing committee, Alari from Kuwait will officiate the match, Aranez and Karil Tan will serve as the first and second assistant referees respectively, Japan's Junhei Iida will serve as the fourth referee, and Thailand's Sivakorn Buudon will serve as the assistant referee.
Like the previous game, Chinese referees Fu Ming and Zhang Cheng did not play the protagonists of this game, but served as assistant referees and alternate referees respectively.
As is customary, the same referee will not officiate in the semi-finals and finals in a row, so it is very likely that Ma Ning and Fu Ming will enforce in the final. As for the referee of the final, the final decision will be made based on the results of the semi-finals and other factors.
The Chinese referees have performed well in this Asian Cup and have shown superb refereeing skills, which is worthy of recognition. We expect them to do an excellent job in the final again and contribute to the fairness of the game.
The final selection of referees will become the suspense before the final, let's wait and see, and look forward to the perfect ending of the Asian Cup.
