Ali Ben Nasser

Ali Ben Nasser achieved a rare form of immortality in the world of sports. Being the first Tunisian referee to officiate a World Cup quarter-final is a significant national achievement. His involvement in the "Hand of God" incident ensures his name is forever linked to one of the most famous goals in history. The auction of the ball for millions of dollars further cements his unique position as the custodian of a piece of football history that transcends the game itself.
