The Senegal football federation has been hit with a fine of $180,000 by FIFA after their fans and supporters shined a laser light at Egypt’s Mo Salah and other teammates, during the world cup qualification last month. It all happened when the two teams, Egypt and Senegal clashed in the FIFA qualification to determine who qualifies for the Qatar 2022 world cup.
The match ended in a draw after the 90 minutes and penalty kicks had to take place to determine who will advance to the next stage of the competition. Salah one of Egypt’s star players and players of Liverpool had a green laser light shined in his eyes repeatedly and intentionally as they attempted to pay their penalty. As a result, Salah and his teammates missed their kicks and Senegal advanced to the next stage of the competition.
Bringing laser lights to the stadium is against the FIFA Safety security regulations. Fifa makes sure spectators are well checked outside the stadium before they enter, however, how these supporters were able to bring these lasers in still baffles the federation. Due to this FIFA has hit the Senegal football federation with a fine of $180,000 but the results still stand and Egypt is out of the competition.
“As stated in the FIFA Stadium Safety and Security Regulations, laser pointers are considered prohibited items by FIFA and confiscated when the spectators are checked at the outer stadium perimeter,” FIFA said after the incident.
“When incidents happen within the applicable scope of FIFA’s Disciplinary Code, disciplinary measures may be taken based on article 16, paragraph 2,” which says teams are liable for inappropriate behavior from their fans.”https://googleads.g.doubleclick.net/pagead/ads?client=ca-pub-3588414490747282&output=html&h=312&slotname=3502120954&adk=602237969&adf=3318573824&pi=t.ma~as.3502120954&w=375&lmt=1651513452&rafmt=1&psa=0&format=375×312&url=https%3A%2F%2Fnuamahonline.com%2F2022%2F05%2F02%2Ffifa-fines-senegal-180000%2F&host=ca-host-pub-2644536267352236&fwr=1&fwrattr=true&rpe=1&resp_fmts=3&sfro=1&wgl=1&dt=1651513451405&bpp=5&bdt=1716&idt=653&shv=r20220428&mjsv=m202204260101&ptt=9&saldr=aa&abxe=1&cookie=ID%3D5824cd28e0ba4306-22fee04d58d300d1%3AT%3D1651513452%3ART%3D1651513452%3AS%3DALNI_MaDsXAHLZdeW5EjXbdhXEQ0SI7yJg&prev_fmts=0x0%2C375x312&nras=1&correlator=6332504626216&frm=20&pv=1&ga_vid=591852533.1651513451&ga_sid=1651513453&ga_hid=1632847319&ga_fc=1&u_tz=0&u_his=1&u_h=812&u_w=375&u_ah=812&u_aw=375&u_cd=32&u_sd=3&adx=0&ady=2205&biw=375&bih=641&scr_x=0&scr_y=0&eid=44759875%2C44759926%2C44759837%2C21066428%2C31065742%2C31064018&oid=2&pvsid=4502188106815933&pem=511&tmod=421720704&nvt=1&ref=https%3A%2F%2Ft.co%2F&eae=0&fc=1920&brdim=0%2C0%2C0%2C0%2C375%2C0%2C375%2C812%2C375%2C641&vis=1&rsz=%7C%7CoeEbr%7C&abl=CS&pfx=0&fu=128&bc=31&ifi=3&uci=a!3&btvi=1&fsb=1&xpc=TXD4G5VujO&p=https%3A//nuamahonline.com&dtd=1554
