Assistant referee to appear in Playboy

Considering the kind of comments you'd no doubt get from leering football fans, would you then agree to pose nude in Playboy magazine? Ana Paula Oliveira would and indeed, will.
She has already caused plenty of controversy in her time, having served a three-match ban for wrongly-disallowing a goal in a Copa Brasil game last month, and this latest news has not been met with much enthusiasm by her bosses at the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF). A spokesman for referee's chief Edson Rezende said:
"If she took that decision, it's because she must have other career thoughts."
