CAF awards three points and three goals to Super Eagles for aborted Libya-Nigeria AFCON Qualifier

The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has awarded three points, and three goals to Nigeria for the missed Libya game.

The development comes after the CAF president, Patrice Motsepe, said a thorough probe was ongoing following the recent controversy surrounding Nigeria’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Libya.

Motsepe had maintained that the continental body would not tolerate any lack of sportsmanship and unfair treatment in African football.

A statement signed by CAF’s Chairperson of CAF Disciplinary Board, Ousmane Kane on Saturday, said the decision to award Nigeria the points was taken after findings by the disciplinary committee it set up to look into the matter between the Libya and Nigerian senior football men’s team.

The Disciplinary Board of the Confederation of African Football also fined the Libyan Football Federation for the Super Eagles’ ordeal.

The 5-man disciplinary committee was made up of ; Mr. Ousmane Kane (Senegal) Chairperson, Ms. Njeri Onyango (Kenya) Vice-Chairperson, Mr. Felix Golbassia (Tchad) Member, Mr. Patrick Shale (Lesotho) Member, and Mr. Norman Arendse (South Africa) Member.

CAF said the disciplinary board decided that;

  • “The Libya Football Federation is found to have breached Article 31 of the African, Cup of Nations Regulations as well as Articles 82 and 151 of the CAF Disciplinary Code, and that;
  • the match No.87 Libya v. Nigeria of the CAF African Cup of Nations Qualifiers 2025 (scheduled to be played on 15 October 2024 in Benghazi) is declared lost by forfeit by Libya (by a score of 3-0).”
  • The Libya Football Federation is ordered to pay a fine of USD 50,000.  The fine is to be paid within 60 days of notification of the present decision
