Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>South African Football Association (SAFA) president Danny Jordaan has put pressure on FIFA’s disciplinary committee to take action regarding the inconsistent match officiating by Senegalese referee Maguette Ndiaye.<\/p>\n

SA’s leading football body has protested against Ndiaye’s handling of Bafana Bafana’s crucial World Cup qualifier against Ghana earlier this month after the official awarded a controversial penalty and appeared to favour Ghana in most on-field decisions.<\/p>\n

A verdict was expected on 23 November, however, Jordaan revealed that the world’s leading football body has still not communicated with SAFA. “FIFA issued a statement saying they would give us a decision on 23 November,” Jordaan told TimesLIVE on Sunday.<\/p>\n

“What is the date today? It is 28 November, isn’t it? The question is, why have they (FIFA) not even communicated with us? Why?”<\/p>\n

SAFA are claiming match-fixing may be involved, citing video analysis of Maguette’s officiating, where there were clear mistakes. “The statutes of FIFA say they must protect the integrity of their competitions,” continued Jordaan.<\/p>\n

“So, I think the matter has become more serious now. Ghana initially said our protest was frivolous.<\/p>\n

“It is really strange that a federation attacks another in the manner they did. It is strange that they held a press conference and they attacked SAFA.<\/p>\n

“But the thing is, we never accused them of anything. We wanted the referee, Maguette Ndiaye, to be investigated.”<\/p>\n

Jordaan added: “The fact that they [haven’t announced a decision] means there are other issues at play here. We asked FIFA for a thorough investigation [into Ndiaye’s conduct].<\/p>\n

“Other people [who are not South Africans] have come forward and added more information.”<\/p>\n
