Very good for that, it's ok a woman refereeing a game men playing...
But I wonder, men can referee a women's game in a world cup, what would feminism say "damn patriarchy!!"..lol..

Unfortunate that this deserved recognition from the referees is done under the context of deep systematic discrimination of women in Qatar

@virusrex, I don't think it's at all unfortunate, as you say, that she's front and centre as a qualified referee in Qatar. I think it's quite the opposite - it could be considered an 'in-you-face slap' to the host country and a true inspiration to Qatari women.
