Senegal slapped with fine ahead of World Cup last 16 clash against England for breaching FIFA rules in the group stages


Senegal will play England in the World Cup last 16, but have been hit with a fine just before they take on the Three Lions in Qatar.

Aliou Cisse’s side booked their place in the second round – for only the second time in their history – by winning two group games against Qatar and Ecuador.

They reached the quarter-final in 2002, losing to Turkey, however, before they take to the pitch in this year’s edition, they find themselves filling FIFA’s coffers for the fact manager Aliou Cisse attended his pre-match press conference before his side’s clash against Ecuador on his own.


The football governing body’s rules say that a prior to a match, two figures from a team must take part in press conference duties – one player alongside the head coach.

For not doing this, Senegal’s FA are being forced to hand over £8,700.


A statement from FIFA read: “The Fifa Disciplinary Committee has sanctioned the Senegalese Football Federation with a fine in the amount of CHF 10,000 and a warning for breaches of article 44 of the Regulations for the Fifa World Cup Qatar 2022 article 2.7.2 of the Media and Marketing Regulations and article 8.5.3 of the Team Handbook.”


This isn’t the first time FIFA has fined a nation for failing to follow media rules: Germany got the same treatment prior to their clash against Spain last week when Hansi Flick attended a press conference without a player from his squad.

Although it will come as a blow, Senegal will be fully focused on their clash against England, hoping to make history by causing a huge upset against one of the tournament favourites.

STOP LEO  Netherlands and Barcelona midfielder Frenkie De Jong makes honest admission about Lionel Messi, but believes Argentina captain can be stopped in World Cup quarter-final Frenkie de Jong claims he does not know how to stop Lionel Messi, but insists the Netherlands will find a way to keep him quiet. The Netherlands go head-to-head with Argentina on Friday  in their World Cup quarter-final clash. Barcelona midfielder De Jong played alongside the Argentinian star for two campaigns at the Camp Nou,  before Messi’s shock departure to Paris Saint-Germain in the summer of 2021 . The Dutchman believes there is no secret of trying to stop the 35-year-old, with the Netherlands looking to end Messi’s dream of lifting the World Cup. When asked if he knows how to keep Messi quiet, De Jong told  ESPN : “Well, no. I know him, but I don’t know how to stop him.  “He’s been making the difference for 15 years and there is not one way to stop him. “Usually he wo...

FREEBIES   Marcus Rashford, Wilfried Zaha, Youri Tielemans, N’Golo Kante and Leandro Trossard – ten top Premier League players who can agree free transfers in January Premier League clubs are in danger of losing key stars on free transfers with players able to sign pre-agreements with foreign clubs in January. Those in the last year of their contracts are able to negotiate a summer move with teams from outside England in the New Year. And there are a number of high-profile players that could decide to depart the English top-flight for a new venture abroad. Should their club not have the option to extend their stay for a further year, they would be powerless to stop them from entering talks with other clubs. This could see a number reluctantly accept cut-price fees in the winter transfer market. Players can also wait until their contracts expire before entering talks to sign for another Premier League next summer. But as things stand, players who are contracted until 2023 can enter ...

The Youtube channel, the Skateboard Academy and Dostoevsky: his story "To understand intelligently, intelligence is not enough"  .  To play football, talent alone is not enough.  This is how Guastavo Scarpa must  have paraphrased one of the sentences from his favorite novel,  Crime and Punishment by Dostoevsky  .  In fact, the Brazilian born in '94 has managed to create his own identity even off the pitch.  Books, social networks and Rubik's cubes  : from Brazil he brought everything to  England  .  The midfielder is Nottingham Forest  's 23rd signing of the season  .  He has already been announced and is training with the team, but he can't play until January (except in a friendly), when his contract with  Palmeiras  expires . ...
