In Greece, it has been a common practice for some time to have foreign referees officiate the most important matches in their football league. This weekend, two derbies are scheduled, with foreign referees officiating both. On Sunday, eternal rivals Panathinaikos and Olympiacos will face each other, with German referee Daniel Schlager in charge. On the last day of this working week, things will also heat up in Thessaloniki, where, interestingly, Rade Obrenović will have the final say.
The Greeks have entrusted the always interesting and highly intense match between the city rivals PAOK and Aris to the Slovenian referee Rade Obrenović. PAOK, the former club of Jasmin Kurtić, is currently leading the standings in the Greek league, and Aris has also qualified for the championship league, currently occupying the fifth position.
33-year-old Rade Obrenović has been officiating in the Slovenian Prva liga Telemach since 2014 and boasts international experience, having refereed twice in the UEFA Champions League. His assignment to a match in Greece is not his first experience with foreign league football; earlier this year, he officiated a match in Cyprus between Anorthosis and AEL Limasol.
