Equatorial Guinea’s appeal to overturn a points deduction for fielding an ineligible player in two 2026 Fifa World Cup qualifying wins has been turned down by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas).
The Central Africans beat both Namibia and Liberia 1-0 in November 2023 but Fifa awarded their opponents technical 3-0 wins six months later because the National Thunder fielded Emilio Nsue, who scored the winner in both games.
