Africa-Press – Angola. The football club “Norberto de Castro” announced yesterday, Wednesday, in Viana, Luanda province, the withdrawal of the Angola Cup and, consequently, the next qualification for access to the national football championship, Girabola 2023/24 .
The decision of the management of the sports and academic training club, owned by Norberto de Castro, was announced by the vice-president, Fernando Oséias da Costa, during a press conference.
According to the official, there is bad faith on the part of the Angolan Football Federation (FAF), so from now on the team will only participate in domestic, provincial and international championships, in order to prevent problems of this nature.
He clarified that the measure arises due to the alleged lack of attendance and irregularities that appeared on March 29, when there would be a game between Norberto de Castro and Escolinha Isaac de Benguela, which imposed a financial fine of 800,000 kwanzas for non-completion. .
For the vice-president, Fernando da Costa, these elements do not correspond with the truth and for himself it demonstrates a clear intention to harm the team.
