World cup 2022: FIFA imposes ban on Senegal and Nigeria

FIFA imposes ban on Senegal and Nigeria over match disorder.

The ban is a one-match stadium ban on Senegal and Nigeria due to chaos during the world cup playoffs.

This means that FIFA has ordered Senegal and Nigeria to play one match behind closed doors after the disorder.

FIFA issued a raft of sanctions globally on Monday after going through cases from the concluded world cup qualifying games played since the start of the year.
