After the Russian invasion of Ukraine, FIFA Ukrainian referee Kateryna Monzul received an offer to work in Italy.
The debut of the 40-year-old referee from Kharkiv was the women's Serie A match between "Inter" and "Sampdoria" (4: 3).
Monzul came out with a Ukrainian flag for this match.
Kateryna was offered long-term cooperation in the Apennine Peninsula.
Monzul is one of the best referees in the world. She became the first Ukrainian referee to get into the elite category of FIFA referees.
