An all-female refereeing team has taken charge of a men's game in a World Cup first as Costa Rica face Germany in their Group E decider.

Be calm, focused, concentrate, and don't think too much about the media and everything, just be focused on the field.Three female referees are on FIFA's 36-person roster for the World Cup finals, with Japan's Yoshimi Yamashita and Rwanda's Salima Mukansanga still waiting to referee at the tournament.
"This concludes a long process that began several years ago with the deployment of female referees at FIFA men’s junior and senior tournaments.
