The tribute paid by Didier Drogba and Emmanuel Eboué to Nelson Mandela by unveiling t-shirts with messages during a match could lead to sanctions by the Turkish Federation.

The two Ivorian players may have to appear before the disciplinary committee. However, the incident has sparked a discussion about whether such tributes should be exempt from disciplinary action in certain cases.
