00:01For the first time in history, the Copa del Mundo de Fútbol Masculino will be arbitrated by women.
00:09The candidates are the French Stéphanie Frappard, the French Salima Mukanzanga and the Japanese Yoshimi Yamashita.
00:16The three are part of the select group of 36 main arbiters that already prepared in Qatar.
00:23Frappard is one of the most prestigious arbiters in Europe.
00:26She was the first woman in arbitration of the Ligue 1, the Supercopa of Europe, the Liga of Campeones and
00:33the final of the France.
00:37Since 2019 we have done a great step ahead.
00:39Now it is not a surprise to see women arbitrating men, sea the continent or the country.
00:45So it is in line with what has been done before and a little more destacable.
00:50For her part, Yamashita made history at becoming the first woman in arbitration of the Liga of Campeones,
00:58while Mukanzanga was the first woman in arbitration of the African Cup.
01:03A few days from the beginning of the tournament, the ruanda is happy.
01:08It is not only proud, it is super proud and it is a privilege and a honor to be part
01:13of the history.
01:13And we are actors in this history.
01:16It is another level, it is something really very emotional.
01:28It is so exciting.
01:28It is also one of the best feelings of all my life.
01:33Only the emotion, the feeling that she had won.
01:37All those feelings and represent the United States.
01:40To represent the CONCACAF and the FIFA as well, it is such an honor.
01:46The six pioneras are aware of their role of model for a whole generation of future arbiters.
01:52And they want to highlight their role in their field, their capacity in the field,
01:57rather than their gender.
