World football governing body FIFA has reportedly throw out a petition from the South African Football Association(SAFA) with regards to their 2022 World Cup qualifier game against Ghana at the Cape Coast Stadium.

The Black Stars defeated the Bafana Bafana of South Africa by a lone goal to secure the only slot in group G for the play offs of the 2022 World Cup.

Ghana had a penalty after Daniel Amartey went to ground in the penalty box following a challenge from Rushine De Reuck although it appeared soft there was a nudge in the back of the Leicester City defender.

The Senegalese referee Ndiaye Maguette who was standing just a few meters outside the penalty box swiftly awarded the penalty without any second thought.

FIFA  urged the two Associations that is Ghana and South Africa to present any comments or evidence it deems appropriate latest by 20th November 2021 as they referred the protest to the FIFA Disciplinary Committee who began their work on 23rd November,2021.

Chief Executive Officer of the South African Football Association (SAFA), Tebogo Motlanthe  said that the final game in the 2022 World Cup qualifier against Ghana was a fixed match.

He  therefore called on world football governing body FIFA and the Confederation of African Football (CAF) to probe the match which was played at the Cape Coast Stadium.
