Former CAF and FIFA executive committee member Dr. Amos Adamu says he expects the football body in Africa to slam a huge fine and also hand a win to the Super Eagles of Nigeria following the suspension of the AFCON qualifiers game against Libya.
Billed to be played on Tuesday in Benghazi, the game was suspended after the senior national team were left unattended to at the airport 16 hours after arrival from Nigeria for the game. They decided to fly back to base leaving CAF with a decision to make.
CAF has made it known in a statement that the case has been referred to their disciplinary body with a time frame for judgement expected to be Tuesday next week. Adamu who knows a thing about how it works expects the decision to favour Super Eagles.
“Will you wait until they kill you before you leave? When you see danger, you leave. They will not sanction Nigeria for leaving. In the next 1 or 2 days they will resolve it”, he told Brila FM in an interview.
” Libya should take full responsibility for what they did. I expect them to be fined heavily and to also lose the match”.
