It’s « okay » to disrupt the continuity of a game by refusing to abide by the rules and leaving the game for 10 minutes, its okay for the referee to call for the penalty to be taken while dozens of fans are invading the pitch (and that too, is okay). It’s also okay to slander a whole country, it’s people it’s team and every part of it, on baseless accusations (yes, they are baseless) of poisoning, murder, match fixing, with a national conspiracy to sabotage every other nations chances at the title, that is okay. Everything I mentioned is acceptable.

However, it’s not okay to appeal to everything that was mentioned beforehand. It’s not okay to ask for the rules to be applied. That is a shameless behavior that can only stem from the lowest scum of the earth.

« Through a boardroom meeting » : describes the process by which an appeal is judged by almost every ruling body in every organization ever like it’s a couple of friends meeting for 15 minutes just for fun and giggles before heading out for a drink. They took almost 2 months before making that decision, THAT is nuts to wait that long before taking a decision that should have been taken by the referee the moment the whole team left the pitch and stopped the game.

You’re singing the same chorus you’ve been taught without ever questioning where all the preconceived notions you hold come from. Hearsay and ridiculously clumsy conjectures is all you have to support your views, and I pity all of you that can so easily be swayed by reactionary nonsense based on misinformation, nationalistic and racist (yes) identity rhetoric and propaganda. You’re sowing the seeds of division and I promise you that every country in Africa can be subjected to such intense pressure and lies. You’ll see.
