Ghanaian referee Derrick Kwatei Quartey has been selected among the match officials for the 2026 Futsal Africa Cup of Nations final, giving him his first major final assignment.
Quartey will serve as Reserve Assistant Referee when Morocco face Angola in Rabat on Wednesday, October 21, 2026. The match is scheduled to begin at 20:00 local time, equivalent to 19:00 GMT.
The officiating team will be led by Tunisian referee Abdelakram El Hentati, with South Africa’s Sipho Machbeth Mahlangu appointed as Referee 2 and Cameroon’s Eric Elingui Mindjih as Referee 3. Libya’s Mohammed Alsertawi will handle timekeeping duties.
The appointment marks an important achievement in Quartey’s career as he continues to gain recognition in African football officiating.
His selection for the continental final also highlights Ghana’s presence on the African refereeing stage, as he takes another step forward in his professional career.
