The referee of the match of the 5th and penultimate day of the qualifiers for the 2022 Africa Cup of Nations, which opposed Zambia to Algeria (3-3), on 25 March 2021, in Lusaka, the Comorian Adelaid Mohamed Ali, has been suspended for 3 months. The CAF Referees Committee made the decision, following an official complaint by the Algerian Football Federation to the African football governing body, with a copy sent to FIFA.
The Comorian referee is accused by Algeria of having awarded two imaginary penalty kicks against them. Adelaid Mohamed Ali received a questionnaire from the Referees Committee of the governing body of the African football and was asked to explain his decisions during this match in Lusaka. He was then suspended for 3 months and will not be eligible to officiate any match on the first day of the African qualifiers for the Qatar 2022 World Cup, which start in June.
