Bamlak Tessema, an Ethiopian referee who's made quite a name for himself, has announced his retirement in a letter to FIFA.
After an incredible career that included officiating at the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia, the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations, and the 2021 Kuwait STC Premier League, he's hanging up his whistle.
