Cameroon Football Federation FECAFOOT has slammed CAF’s suspension of its president Samuel Eto’o over an alleged misconduct during the Morocco v Cameroon quarter-final match in Rabat.
The legendary striker was fined $20,000 and a four-match ban for his alleged altercation with CAF president Patrice Motsepe and Morocco Football Federation president Fouzi Lekjaa while watching the game from the state box.
Eto’o and Cameroon players felt they were hard done by questionable officiating, which seems to favour Morocco who eventually won the game 2-0 to send the Indomitable Lions packing from the tournament.
FECAFOOT said in a statement that it does not understand CAF’s decision and denounced what it described as a rushed procedure that failed to meet “the fundamental requirements of a fair trial.”
