Guinea request to replace Tanzania at AFCON

Post by Olayemi14 »

The Guinea Football Federation (FGF) is claiming Tanzania should be prevented from qualifying for next year’s Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) after an alleged administrative violation in Tuesday’s match between the two sides which saw a Tanzanian substitute wear an incorrect shirt number.

The FGF said in a statement on Thursday that it filed a formal complaint about the alleged error following the qualifier. The Tanzanian Football Federation (TFF) later said it had not received any indication from the Confederation of African Football (CAF), which organises AFCON, that their player’s participation in the match was “illegal”.

Guinea fielded an overaged player in their Olympic qualifier against Nigeria last year. Dundee united Ibrahim Gausau did not pursue the case, and Guinea went to the Olympics. They need to sit down and STFU.
