This will be the first international senior England match to feature all women officials.

Two men make up the larger officiating team. Denys Shurman is the fourth official, and Viktor Matyash is the assistant VAR.

Monzul, 40 years old, was also the referee for the Nations League match between San Marino & Gibraltar. This was the first ever all-female refereeing group to take charge of an international senior men's.

She was the first woman to officiate in Ukraine a top-division match for men in 2016, and she has also refereed at European Championships and Women's World Cups.
