About Tofiq Bahramov
- Tofiq Bahramov (Azerbaijani: Tofiq B?hramov; Russian: ????? ????????; 29 January 1925 – 26 March 1993), in England often incorrectly referred to as "the Russian linesman", was a Soviet footballer and football referee from Azerbaijan. He was notable for being the linesman who helped to award a contentious goal for England in the 1966 FIFA World Cup Final against West Germany.
- As a referee earlier in the tournament, he drew attention for denying a Swiss goal in a first-round game between Switzerland and Spain. After his death in 1993, Azerbaijan's then national stadium was renamed the Tofiq Bahramov Stadium in his honour.
