The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has issued an official CAF Nwabali suspension update following confusion over the Super Eagles goalkeeper’s yellow card.
CAF confirmed that Stanley Nwabali’s caution during Nigeria’s quarter-final match was correctly recorded. However, the booking does not result in suspension.
CAF Explains Nwabali Yellow Card Decision
According to CAF, Nwabali’s yellow card remains valid under tournament rules. The caution was reviewed after public debate.
CAF stressed that the goalkeeper did not accumulate enough bookings to warrant a ban. He is therefore cleared for the semi-final.
