CAF African Champions League Final To Be Replayed. by naptu2: 7:20pm On Jun 05, 2019 |
The second leg of the CAF African Champions League final between Esperance of Tunis and Wydad Casablanca was abandoned on June 2nd, 2019 after Wydad Casablanca's equaliser was ruled offside by Gambian refereee Bakary Papa Gassama. Esperence were leading 1-0 at the time and players and officials of Wydad Casablanca appealed to the referee to review the goal using the Video Assisted Referee (VAR) system, but the system was not working because an important component was missing. The referee was aware that the system was not working, but the players were unaware. Wydad players subsequently walked off the field and Esperance were declared the winners of the match. The first leg had ended in a 1-1 draw and so Esperance were declared champions. See previous thread.

CAF is useless I swear. They burgled the final and are now taking the easy way out. What if Esperance players decide not to return the medals? Or claim it was stolen or lost? 80 Likes 6 Shares |

It hasn't yet been reported on CAF's handles, but apparently CAF's website has just been hacked. |

JubrinElSudan: It was held in Paris because FIFA delegates (including CAF Executive Committee members) are in Paris for the FIFA Congress ahead of the Women's World Cup. They just re-elected Infantino as president of FIFA. 67 Likes 3 Shares |

CAF is setting a bad precedence in African football with this decision of theirs which is to say if another team feels cheated in a game they should just abandon the game cos replay is sure even though they were told to continue by match officials seriously CAF sucks. 10 Likes |
