Alireza Faghani (Шаблон:Lang-fa; born 21 March 1978) is an Iranian Australian international football referee and former player, who has been on the international referees list for FIFA since 2008.
Faghani has officiated in the Persian Gulf Pro League for several seasons until 2022, important matches such as the 2014 AFC Champions League Final, the 2015 AFC Asian Cup Final, the 2015 FIFA Club World Cup Final, the 2016 Olympic football final match. He has refereed matches in the 2017 Liga 1, 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup, 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia, 2019 AFC Asian Cup in UAE, 2022 FIFA World Cup and the 2023 AFC Asian Cup in Qatar.
Faghani had migrated to Australia in September 2019, and now referees in the A-League, and as an Australian referee in international tournaments since 2023.[1]
Early life
Faghani was born on 21 March 1978 in Kashmar, a city near Mashhad. His nickname is Behrooz (Шаблон:Lang). His father, Mohammad Faghani (Шаблон:Lang) was also a football referee. He has a younger brother named Mohammadreza, who referees in Sweden.
Playing career
Faghani was part of the youth team of Bank Melli, and also played for Shahab Khodro, Etka, and Niroye Zamini. He also played in Iran's League 2, the third tier of Iranian football.
Refereeing career
Faghani became a FIFA referee in 2008, only a year after officiating in the top flight league in Iran. After only one year of international experience Faghani took charge of the 2009 AFC President's Cup Final which was played between Regar-TadAZ Tursunzoda and Dordoi-Dynamo Naryn which was won 2–0 by the hosts.[2] A year later he was again in charge of a final in the 2010 AFC Challenge Cup.
He was named as the fourth referee for the opening match of the 2014 FIFA World Cup between Brazil and Croatia.[3] He also refereed the 2014 AFC Champions League Final first leg match between Al-Hilal and Western Sydney Wanderers. He was also one of the officials of the 2015 AFC Asian Cup, refereeing his first match in Group B between Saudi Arabia and China that ended 0–1.
He was appointed to referee the 2015 AFC Asian Cup Final, which was contested by South Korea and Australia. Faghani was the referee in the 2015 FIFA Club World Cup Final between Club Atlético River Plate and FC Barcelona. He was also the referee in the 2016 Indian Super League Final between Kerala Blasters and ATK.[4] Faghani reffed the 2016 Olympic football final match between host Brazil and Germany.
Faghani was referee in six matches of the 2017 Liga 1 in Indonesia and two matches of the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup in Russia.
Faghani was appointed to be a referee for the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia.[5] After the conclusion of the round of 16, it was announced that Faghani was one of 17 referees who had been selected to be assigned matches for the remainder of the tournament.[6]
He was also referee of the 2018 AFF Championship final between Vietnam – Malaysia in its 2nd leg. On 5 December 2018, it was announced that Faghani had been appointed to referee at the 2019 AFC Asian Cup in the United Arab Emirates.[7]
In 2019 he and his family migrated from Iran to Australia, and he was subsequently signed on by the A-League to the full time match official panel. Since 2023, he is on the FIFA list of international referees from Australia.[1] Faghani's decision to represent Australia was believed to be linked to his support for the Mahsa Amini protests, which resulted in the FFIRI delisting Faghani as an Iranian referee in retaliation.[8]
In 2024, Faghani was selected to referee the 2023 AFC Asian Cup opener, representing Australia.[9]
