The decision taken by the Confederation of African Football to remove the Lat Dior Stadium in Thies (70 km from Dakar) from the long list of approved stadiums that can host the World Cup finals, was a very bitter pill for the Senegalese, who did not fail to underline the frivolity of the authorities in general, and that of sport in particular.

Ibrahima Fall, tailor » Amateurism! « exclaims Ibrahima Fall, a tailor, who says he does not « understand how the Senegalese authorities have reached this stage, especially for a so-called football country like Senegal. How can a country like Senegal, which is one of the best African teams, not have a single stadium available, capable of meeting CAF standards. It is a failure, and we must dare to say it. Today, Senegal should be able to organize international competitions, such as African Cups, » laments the tailor who points out that « this Lat Dior stadium, which I have known since my birth, has not changed at all. Nothing has changed, except the pitch. It’s really a pity. I think CAF did well to suspend a country as negligent as Senegal.

I also think that sanctions are needed at all levels so that this situation never happens again. Personally, I can’t understand how Senegal, a country with players who have won prestigious trophies such as the Champions League, a nation with great names in football who play in the four corners of the world, does not have a single football stadium that meets the standards, it’s a big shame. Honestly, I can’t understand how we got here. I’m disgusted, » lamented the manager of Sope Naby Bakery.
