cant be done in football. Refree's decision is final. No adjudication.
u are wrong, Nigeria were stripped 2 points and all 3 points were awarded to Algeria during our last world cup qualifiers away at Algeria after the match ended 1 apiece. Reason: Nigeria fielded an ineligible player. So caf decision is final not the ref. We can still be awarded the full 3 points here

Nonsense. Over unavailability of what? They haven't called it a need yet. NFF should report to CAF.

It's not enough to apologise, since it has been proven the goals were not offside, simply award Nigeria the goals and decare Nigeria the winner. Like we did to MKO recently.

Hehehe. So bet9ja will pay you cos I don't get your interest. Nigeria has qualified.

Report has it that the head referee who officiated the AFCON 2019 qualifying match between Bafana Bafana and Nigeria on Saturday in South Africa - has apologised for the costly mistakes made by officials during the game.

The Gambian football referee identified as Bakary Papa Gassama apologised to the Nigerian team after wrongly denying them two goals due to wrong offside calls, according to a report by OwnGoalNigeria.

Ahmed Musa put through Kelechi Iheanacho who tapped home believing he has given Nigeria the lead but Musa who supplied the pass was judged by the assistant referee as been in an offside position, something which turned out to be wrong after video replays.

In the second half with less than five minutes to go, Musa was once again at the receiving end of another poor referee decision as he was once again flagged offside incorrectly after slotting home what could have given Nigeria all three points.

The game ended 1-1 with Nigeria sealing her passage to next year Africa Cup of Nations but officials of the Nigeria Football Federation ( NFF) still expressed their unhappiness to Gassama over the poor decision which cost Nigeria a win.

Gassama admitted the error and even went a step further by sending his apologies to Musa over the incident although he admitted that such errors are sometimes unavoidable particularly due to the non-availability of the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) .

no referee will ever apologise doing so will put the game into disrupt, mistakes made by referee i.e s/he not being able to see from viewers point of view via tv through different angles by different camera can
not be reversed especially after the game has ended

remember its not about just play on the field but other industries involved, like at these betting shops how will they deal with reversed discusion on a payout,

I think Libya should complain to CAF. This is so wrong. South africa did same thing to Senegal during the world cup qualifier. They were dealth with.

Forgive him, after all he has apologized. PDP apologized and we forgave&forgat. But, if it had gone the other way round, i.e, SA that scored, would he have given the goals?

The referee and lines-men were use to fix the game for south africa so that Nigeria will not win Simple.
Re: Referee Bakary Gassama Apologises To Nigeria After South Africa Match by Adakintroy: 8:38am On Nov 19, 2018
Don't blame the ref. Nigeria and s.a are supper power in Africa. I Trust amaju pinnick the warri boy. He has already fix that match draw.


Those calls were too obviose. Twice for that matter. Even if the ref mix it. What of the lines man. Can't they discuss. If that match was allow to flow, Nigeria go beat them black and blue. Is it those olando pirate/ Kaiza chiefs boys that you want to use to stage European base players. With superior drill and all round tactical awareness..as for as African goes for now, Nigeria is has the best team

So please just leave African vodoo football. The more you look the less you see.

Lol. I don't bet on football o, it's just that I don't subscribe to the fact that the referee's decision should be final even in the face of glaring incompetence!

fielding over-aged players is not ref's decision. On the field of play, what the ref rules is final. Ref's decison can be petitioned and the ref sactioned, but their decision is final concerning d match.
Ask someone else.
