Sports news in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) continues to arouse the interest of football fans. Recently, the Congolese Football Federation (FECOFA) filed a complaint against a Sudanese player, questioning his participation in the meeting between the DRC and Sudan. This case highlights the qualification issues and the strict rules governing international football.
According to the information obtained, the player in question is Jusif Ali, wearing number 14 and holding a Finnish passport. FECOFA maintains that this player should not have played the match, because his qualification was not in order. The Congolese body has filed a reservation with FIFA, in accordance with the regulations in force. This reservation must be made within two hours of the match and confirmed within 24 hours, upon payment of a deposit.
The case of Jusif Ali recalls a similar case won by the DRC against Mauritania. The Congolese federation therefore hopes to win its case in this new complaint. According to internal sources at FECOFA, there was no lack of evidence in this case and the procedure was respected within the allotted time frame. The continuation of this affair could therefore be played out at the FIFA level.
This situation highlights the importance of respecting qualification rules for international players. Football is governed by strict laws to ensure the fairness and integrity of competitions. The national federations are responsible for ensuring compliance with these rules and protecting the interests of their team.
While awaiting FIFA’s decision, the DRC continues to fight on the ground for its sporting ambitions. This case reminds us that in the world of football, every detail counts and that the slightest irregularity can have significant consequences. We will closely monitor developments in this matter and hope that sporting justice will be served.
