Coupe du monde 2026 : lourde sanction pour le joueur qatari qui a blessé Ismaël Koné
FIFA has made its decision. The world football governing body has handed Qatari midfielder Assim Madibo a five-match suspension following the dangerous tackle that seriously injured Canadian Ismaël Koné during the second matchday of the 2026 World Cup group stage.
During the match between Qatar and Canada, Madibo violently tackled the Canadian midfielder, fracturing his left leg. This injury brought an early end to the Koné tournament and sparked numerous reactions within the football world.
In a statement, FIFA deemed the action to be "serious foul play," an offense under its Disciplinary Code. Consequently, the Qatari player has been suspended for his national team's next five official matches. The governing body clarified, however, that the player has the right to appeal this decision to FIFA's Appeals Committee.
This sanction also ends Assim Madibo's participation in the 2026 World Cup. Already in great difficulty in their group, where Qatar occupies fourth place, the Qatari team will have to finish the competition without one of their midfielders, while the player pays a heavy price for an intervention deemed particularly dangerous.
