He is one of the two referees to be decided for World Cup final. Let's hope he gets it - what an achievement that will be.

As a 1st referee or a 2/3rd?

It will be decided on Thursday. It's too early to announce the ref for the final.

Thank you - changed title

Isn't he retiring after this worldcup? Wouldn't be surprised if he does referee it and he is being given this as a send off by Fifa.

No, I read an interview with him where he said he had sarcastically responded to critics that had said he should retire by saying yes he will retire and everyone quoted him on that as if he was serious. In at least two recent interviews he has said that he has no intention to retire now even if he referees the WC Final.

The shit he has to put up with...

He is such a professional in this damn backward environment of iranian media and infrastructure.

We should be so proud of him

[AIrani]

I am HAPPY for Faghani. I hope he makes lots of money and spends in Iran.

[Tehranto]

Also, one of the top officials in Tennis is also Iranian - Ali Nili.

He is currently officiating Wimbeldon - the Roger Federer and Anderson match

[persianallstars]

what is his profession in private life?
