Italian referee Maurizio Mariani will wear a pink kit in the Uruguay vs Saudi Arabia 2026 World Cup match, adding colour to the tournament’s opening stage. The choice was made to bring a fresh visual element to the pitch during the early games of the competition.
Mariani, a seasoned international official, is expected to ensure a fair and well‑controlled match. The pink uniform will stand out against the traditional white and black referee attire.
The encounter is scheduled for the first week of the group stage and will set the tone for both teams' tournament campaigns.
