With the score 0-0 in the eighth minute of stoppage time in Rabat, referee Jean-Jacques Ndala awarded Morocco a penalty for a challenge by El Hadji Malick Diouf on Brahim Diaz. Moments earlier, Ndala had ruled out a Senegal goal. After the penalty was given, Senegal head coach Pape Thiaw encouraged his team to leave the field in protest, with only Sadio Mane remaining.
If I have a cramp, I can enter the field standing or crawling. I don't understand the referee's decision. He sent me off again. Then I couldn't get to the area. I don't understand the referee's decision.
As reported by AS, Victor Font scheduled a counter-event on Tuesday to announce the primary initiatives he will undertake if elected on March 15. One of his first decisions will be to file a lawsuit against the Technical Committee of Referees (CTA) over an alleged conflict of interest, and against Real Madrid Television for attempted competition manipulation. "After the match against Girona, we must make it clear that Barcelona fans are deeply disappointed and more vulnerable than ever," Font stated.
Very even first period and a good start to a road game, especially after getting demolished at Capital One Arena over the weekend.

Now, the Capitals were made to use their penalty kill because the referees decided to buy two blatant dives in a row from the Stars.
