National 1 - Tambacounda : Un dirigeant du Coton Sport poignardé lors du match contre l’ASFA
The match between Coton Sport of Tambacounda and the Association Sportive des Forces Armées (ASFA), counting towards the 24th day of National 1 as part of the play-offs for access to Ligue 2, turned into chaos this Monday at the Tambacounda stadium.
According to sources close to Coton Sport, the club's general manager, Bounda Cissokho, a teacher by profession, was stabbed during the incidents that marred the match. The local club accuses a member of the ASFA medical staff of being involved in the attack. The same sources also indicate that Coton Sport's captain, Jules Ndongue, was also injured in the ensuing clashes.
According to several witnesses, the situation escalated after a penalty was awarded to Coton Sport by the referee of the match when ASFA was leading (1-0).
Images and accounts relayed after the match describe an atmosphere of great confusion, with the intervention of security forces present around the stadium.
These extremely serious events have deeply shocked those involved in Senegalese football and tarnished a match that was supposed to be a decisive sporting event in the race for promotion to Ligue 2.
Coton Sport officials plan to file a complaint against the ASFA medical officer and a supplementary report to the Senegalese Football Federation regarding the training of the armed forces.
Sports and administrative authorities are now expected to shed full light on the incidents, establish responsibilities and take the necessary disciplinary measures.
