Unhinged

"...plunged African football into utter confusion and shame..."

Unhinged

Substitution! Admin. Abject decision. Should we look for a super sub?
No, I don’t think the Confederation of African Football (CAF) is a club
of cons, confusionists and opportunists. However, I think it has plunged
African football into utter confusion and shame like it’s really deranged!



Am I the Only (Furious) Fan Who Thinks
That This Decision Is Depravity and a Foul?

I had thought AFCON 2025 was a done and sealed deal, with all its chapters
of fierce fights for towels instead of trophies, forfeits reaching dubious rafters,
scores, hurts, highs: all the same, one had to revel in Senegal’s hard-worn win.
After the heavy penalties, CAF wasn’t done. The title removal decision is a sin!



Sadio Mané and the whole of Senegal are furious over the withdrawal of the Africa Cup of Nations
