    Pierluigi Collina

    Biography:

    Pierluigi Collina grew up in Bologne and graduated with a degree in economics from the University of Bologne in 1984.

    During his teenage years, he played as a central defender for a local team, but was persuaded in 1977 to take a referee's course, where it was discovered that he had a particular aptitude for the job. 

    Given his natural ability as a referee it didn't take him long to climb through the ranks, and within 3 years he was officiating in top-flight football.

    All achieved whilst completing his compulsory military service. 

    After taking charge of 43 Series A matches he was placed on FIFA's Referees List--this being the pinnacle of any football referee's career. He was allocated five matches at the 1996 Olympic Games, including the final between Nigeria and Argentina.

    Then, within the space of 3 years, Pierluigi was placed in charge of the world's 2 biggest football matches; the 1999 UEFA Champions League Final between Bayern Munic
