Hanoi (VNA) - Vietnamese referee Truong Quoc Dung has been selected among the list of potential candidates who could officiate matches at the upcoming FIFA Futsal World Cup 2021. The FIFA Referees' Committee issued a list of 76 referees, with Dung being the only Vietnamese official included in the list, the Voice of Vietnam (VOV) reported.
The 76 candidates which make up the list will now undergo training and be monitored, with 38 set to be selected to take charge of games at the FIFA Futsal World Cup, an event which is scheduled to take place in Lithuania from September 12 to October 3.
