Irish referee Alan Kelly has been appointed to a Round of 32 UEFA Cup match for the second year in succession.
Kelly’s appointment last season was the first such honour for an Irish referee in over 25 years.
UEFA has confirmed that Kelly will officiate between Deportivo La Coruna and Aa Alborg on 26 February.
The Cork native will lead an all-Irish delegation, with Marc Douglas and Damien McGrath named as assistant referees and Anthony Buttimer named as the fourth official.
The match is one of a number of high profile games to feature Irish officials over the coming months.
David McKeon will lead a team of Irish officials to take charge of the FIFA World Cup qualifier between Liechtenstein and Russia on 1 April, while several Irish officials will also be involved in Under-21 international friendly matches in February and March.
