# Pierluigi Collina

## Bio

Born 13 February 1960 in Italy, Collina rose through the refereeing ranks to command the biggest matches in world football. Between 1998 and 2003, the International Federation of Football History & Statistics named him the world's best referee six consecutive times — an unmatched streak that placed an official, for once, in the limelight. After hanging up the whistle he stayed in the game: unpaid consultant to the Italian Football Referees Association, head of referees for Ukraine's football federation since 2010, and eventually chairman of FIFA's referees committee. The job that made him famous never paid like the players, but it gave him something rarer — universal respect in a sport that eats its own.
