In its announcement, the EPO announced that an elite referee from Israel was initially appointed for the Derby of the Ages, who was then declared a handicap. according to israel hayomOrel Greenfeld was asked by the Hellenic Federation to whistle for the derby of the ages.

The article explains why Greenfield will not be a referee on Derby Boulevard: “Greenfield could not respond positively to the offer, because he is set to whistle on the best matches in the National League (Second Division) in the derby between Maccabi Ptah and Hapoel Ptah who are fighting for promotion to the Premier League.”
