Mark Clattenburg to officiate in Olympic final

Clattenburg to referee Olympic final

Premier League referee Mark Clattenburg has been chosen by FIFA to officiate the Olympic men's football final between Brazil and Mexico on Saturday.

The 37-year-old was announced as the only English referee to be selected for the Games back in April.

Clattenburg will be joined alongside Stephen Child and Simon Beck as his assistant referees for the final, which is being held at Wembley this weekend.

The British referee officiated the Carling Cup final between Liverpool and Cardiff City last season.
