It is not new for Frappart to achieve unprecedented titles, as she was the first woman to assume the task of arbitration in the European Super Match between Liverpool and Chelsea in the 2019 season.

FIFA announced that the trio of Stephanie Frappar, Noiza Pak, and Karen Diaz will become the first all-female refereeing team to officiate a men’s World Cup match as they were chosen to take charge of the Group E match between Costa Rica and Germany on Thursday.
