The official has come under intense scrutiny for his penalty call against Nigeria in Friday’s game against Zambia which ended in a draw
Egyptian referee Grisha Ghead, who officiated the controversial second Group C match between defending champions Zambia and Nigeria on Friday, may be dismissed from the Africa Nations Cup by the Confederation of Africa Football (Caf) as a result of poor officiating, Goal.com has learnt.
Ghead gave Zambia a controversial penalty late in the game which ensured that the match ended 1-1. The Nigeria Football Federation lodged a complaint with Caf after the match.

Caf is yet to react officially.
The last Group C matches are now expected to generate great concern to Caf as they have prepared to monitor the two matches alongside the other groups to forestall a repeat of such scandalous mistakes and biases as alleged by the NFF.

ReplyDeleteAnonymous 1,if av nothn to say,is beta to silent,was it not d game dat was so ovius to evry 1 u ar condemn super eagle no? Pls don‘t provok man oooooo.
ReplyDeleteI agree that the penalty was undeserving. But what i dont really understand is why is no one complaining about Mikel's performance? And i wish to state that champions believe in themselves. The confidence with which the eagles play is not inspiring and winning at this stage is just the beggining of greater worries. God help Nigeria.
