FIFA has announced the referee designations for the matches 5-8, to be played on Saturday, 14 June 2014.
Colombia-Greece will be officiated by US referee Mark Geiger, who is 39. He supervised his first international in 2008 and was in charge for two finals in 2011: Costa Rica-Mexico in the CONCACAF U-20 Championship and Brazil-Portugal at the climax of the FIFA U-20 World Cup in Colombia. That same year, Geiger was named Major League Soccer Referee of the Year.
Enrique Osses will cover the Côte d'Ivoire-Japan contest. Osses, 40 and from Chile, became an international referee in 2005 and has handled the return leg of each of the last two title-deciders of the Copa Sudamericana.
The Uruguay-Costa Rica game has been assigned to Felix Brych from Germany (38). He has refereed UEFA Champions League matches since 2008 and most recently led the 2014 UEFA Europa League final. In 2013, he handled Japan-Mexico in the FIFA Confederations Cup.
The referee for England's showdown with Italy will be Bjorn Kuipers from the Netherlands. The 41-year-old has already supervised six international finals in his career including Brazil-Spain at the Maracana during the last FIFA Confederations Cup and most recently this year's UEFA Champions League decider in Lisbon.
World Cup 2014 Day 1: Brazil v Croatia live text commentary

Ohhhhh – it’s finally here!! IT’S ONLY THE BLOODY WORLD CUP!!
Like Christmas only with four weeks of brilliant football instead of one awkward and overly glutenous family meal and a few days of feigning interest in really shitty and ill-judged Christmas presents. Unlike Christmas in the sense that we’ve actually looking forward to it for ages.
It all starts with the meeting of hosts, Brazil and not hosts, Croatia. Will the Samba Boys flourish under the pressure or will they disappoint like everything Johnny Depp has done since that first Pirates of the Caribbean movie before we realised Jack Sparrow was really just a maritime Russell Brand? We’ll soon find out.
I’ll be here throughout the opening ceremony and match to keep you up to date with all the latest news and snarky comments you’ll need for the evening. You can even join in with the snarky comments, either using the comments section below or giving me a shout on social media fad, Twitter, where I’m @MinistryOfGlove.
