Jerome Damon to handle crunch clash

Damon to handle crunch clash

Posted: 2010-06-23 10:25

All eyes will be on South African referee Jerome Damon when he takes charge of the crucial Group E match between Denmark and Japan in Rustenburg tomorrow.

With the Netherlands already qualified from the group, both sides harbour hopes of making it through to the last 16.

Damon will be assisted by Celestin Ntagungira of Rwanda and Enoch Molefe of South Africa.

The fourth official is Martin Hansson of Sweden.

English referee Howard Webb has been handed his second match of the 2010 Fifa World Cup after being named the man in the middle for tomorrow's Group F game between Slovakia and Italy at Ellis Park.

The 38-year-old from London, who refereed the UEFA Champions League final between Bayern Munich and Inter Milan last month, also took charge of Switzerland's single goal victory over Spain.

Meanwhile, Japanese official Yuichi Nishimura will take charge of the other Group F encounter, as Paraguay take on New Zealand in Polokwane.
