FIFA badge referee Trustin Farrugia Cann has been selected to control an international senior-friendly match between Slovakia and Austria.

The match is scheduled to be played later on Saturday, kicking off 6 pm at the Národný futbalový štadión, which is the National Stadium of Slovakia located in the capital city of Bratislava.

This match will serve as preparation for both nations in their run-up for the highly anticipated UEFA European Championship this summer in Germany.

All involved in the local game would like to extend their best wishes to Trustin Farrugia Cann and the rest of the local match officials entrusted with this appointment, the very best of luck later on Saturday in Slovakia.
