FIFA has announced the referees appointed for Sunday’s match between Brazil and Norway in the FIFA World Cup 2026 round of 16.
The officiating team will be American: Ismail Elfath as the main referee, assisted by Corey Parker and Kyle Atkins. The fourth official will be from Honduras.

The bad news for Brazilians is that Elfath officiated one of Brazil’s matches at the 2022 World Cup. And it was the 1-0 defeat to Cameroon in the group stage.
At the 2026 World Cup, Elfath has officiated two matches: Netherlands 2-2 Japan, and Spain 1-0 Uruguay.
