Women’s football is on the rise around the world, and it is no different on the African continent. But the match between TB Mazembe and Moteba Pembe showed no progress.
On the contrary! At 1:5, something happened that we don’t want to see on football pitches. In fact, we don’t even see them anymore.
The Moteba players demanded a penalty kick, but the referee didn’t give it to them, which made them very angry.
The players ran after the referee and he decided to flee. First he disappeared behind the benches, but then he didn’t escape and the players caught him.
He subsequently took several punches and kicks before he managed to take advantage of a momentary inattention to run off the pitch and into the changing rooms. The video does not go on after that, but it can be seen that some of the female footballers followed the referee there as well.
The video has circulated on the internet and is a laughing stock, but it was certainly none of the referee’s business. The local football association did not let the incident go.
It has started to investigate everything and some of the female footballers will not escape punishment. Had it been in Europe, the team would have had quite a big problem in the coming months to put together a squad for the next matches.
