Football Australia is pleased to advise that FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™ selected referee Chris Beath will whistle this Saturday’s Isuzu UTE A-League Men’s Grand Final between Melbourne City FC and Western United FC at AAMI Park in Melbourne.
Beath will oversee his third A-League Men’s Grand Final this weekend having also taken charge of the 2020 and 2021 deciders.
Beath will be assisted this Saturday night by Anton Shchetinin and Ashley Beecham – two men who, like Beath, were last week confirmed as part of for this year’s World Cup in Qatar.
Daniel Elder will serve as Fourth Official, Andrej Giev as Fifth Official, while the Video Match Officials for the encounter will be led by Kris Griffiths-Jones – with support from Kate Jacewicz and Kearney Robinson – from Sydney.
Football Australia Chief Executive Officer, James Johnson, today congratulated the match officials appointed for the Isuzu UTE A-League’s showpiece fixture, which is set to take place in front of a healthy AAMI Park crowd and will be broadcast live and exclusive around the nation in primetime on Network 10 and Paramount+.
