Captain William Troost-Ekong underscored the team's stance: "As the captain, together with the team, we have decided that we will not play this game; let them have the points." His words reflect the collective decision to pull out following the team's abandonment at the airport, emphasizing a refusal to engage further due to safety concerns and perceived mistreatment.
Troost-Ekong detailed the player’s distressing experience: "The Libyan government rescinded our approved landing in Benghazi with no reason. They've locked the airport gates and left us without phone connection, food, or drink. All to play mind games." This underlines the depth of the team's frustrations and the unacceptable conditions they faced.
