In the stadiums and on the screen, the sponsors have long been sitting in the front row, not the fans. Not least the circumstances surrounding the purchase of tickets for the World Cup in Germany, the bullying by FIFA and sponsors and the haggling over the broadcasting rights of the Bundesliga show that modern sport is no longer about that.

At these finals in her own country, she officiated – with Manuela Nicolosi and Michelle O'Neill on the sidelines – two group games (Argentina against Japan and the Netherlands against Canada), the quarter-finals, in which the Germans lost to the Swedes, and finally the World Cup -Final between the USA and the Netherlands.
