Libya face Caf reprimand
Libya's national team could face Caf sanctions for confronting match officials after their 1-2 loss to Swaziland in Mbabane on Sunday.
Angry Libyan players reportedly caused a stir immediately after the encounter, accusing the Angolan match officials of favouring their Swazi opponents.
Caf officials in Cairo confirmed that they have received a copy of the referee's report which described the post-match fracas. "We have received the referee's report and a decision will be taken by our Nations Cup organising committee by the 23rd of October," the Caf official told BBC Sport Online. A Swazi newspaper reported that the intervention of the police prevented the escalation of the conflict. |
