Beaten by Cape Verde (2-0) on the last day of qualifying for the Brazil 2014 World Cup, Tunisia had to say goodbye to the rest of the competition. However, Carthage Eagles fans maintain a slim hope of a reprieve. The football federation today confirmed the filing with FIFA of a complaint against the participation of a player during this meeting.
According to our colleagues from FootAfrica365, the player in question, who is none other than Heldon, had received two yellow cards and had to miss the match between Cape Verde and Equatorial Guinea, the result of which had been canceled following a reservation Blue Sharks.
According to the FTF, the player had not served his sanction and had to be absent during that day. FIFA’s decision should therefore not take long since the draw for the competition will take place on September 16. But this sanction will probably bite because after this request from Tunisia, FIFA withdrew its ranking published this Thursday for the month of September.
