Dreadful Officiating At The African Nations Cup
« on: February 04, 2006, 02:34 PM »

Before I start ranting, Let me say:
I'm not one to complain about officiating, especially not after a penalty has just been awarded unfairly against my national team (Yeah, the irony... Wink), but I've been less than impressed with the level of officiating at this tournament.
Ok I'll admit, the penalty against Nigeria inspired this thread but with the focus turning to Africa from June (after the world cup in Germany), I think it is high time these African Referees sit up.

referees are humans and are such errors are inevitable but what we have seen so far in this tournament leaves much to be desired.  Angry
if i were to score them on a scale of 1-10 their performance to me merit a 5.

not good enough.

@Bagoma
I would score the officiating at this tournament 2.5 on a scale of 1-10.
It's such a shame CAF still condones this mediocre level of officiating at a major tournament like the ACN.
