Frappart makes soccer history after 92-year wait
STORY: Stephanie Frappart has become a moment in history that’s been 92 years in the making
by becoming the first woman to take charge of a men's World Cup finals game
during Costa Rica's Group E match against Germany.
It was yet another achievement in Frappart’s illustrious career
who began officiating youth games at the age of 13 in France.

"I felt enormous emotion because it wasn’t particularly expected, that I would be picked. So I feel a lot of pride, a lot of honor, to represent France at the World Cup."
Frappart had already entered the history books in 2019
when she became the first woman to referee a French Ligue 1 match.
The same year, she became the first woman to officiate in a major men's European match
In 2020, it was a Champions League match
and a year later - a FIFA World Cup qualifier.

"The first thing will be all the emotions of returning to the World Cup stadium, packed with a large crowd and plenty of expectations. But after that, I’ll be focused on the pitch because we need to make the correct decisions and perform well by concentrating on the primary objective on the pitch."
Frappart has been honored as ‘World's Best Woman Referee’ three times
An award given by the International Federation of Football History and Statistics.
Location: Herblay-sur-Seine, France
The Frenchwoman, whose passion for football came from her father
is seen as a 'star' in her hometown.

"To me it's a source of pride and it's a step forward for our rights, in allowing women to occupy more positions that are given in priority to men."
