Serbia's Milorad Mažić will officiate the UEFA Super Cup game between Real Madrid and Sevilla in Trondheim, the first UEFA final of the Serbian referee’s career.
Fresh from officiating at UEFA EURO 2016, where he and his team took charge of three games, the 43-year-old Mažić has received perhaps the most prestigious assignment of his career.
A company director in the meat industry in Serbia, and a well-known personality in local football, he has been a regular in the UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League. He first took charge of a UEFA match in 2009, a UEFA European Under-17 Championship qualifier between Austria and Italy.
Mažić twice refereed games involving Real Madrid in the 2014/15 UEFA Champions League; a 1-0 win at Basel in the group stage, and a 0-0 draw at Atlético Madrid in the quarter-finals.
He has also been involved in two Sevilla games. His team officiated in the second leg of the 2013/14 UEFA Europa League quarter-finals, where Sevilla progressed despite a 3-1 loss at Valencia, and Mažić was fourth official as Los Hispalenses beat Benfica on penalties in the final in Turin.
