European pressure to prevent the transfer of African players .. anger on the platforms from "racism against the black continent"

There was a great deal of controversy in sports circles about talking about canceling or postponing the tournament at the present time, and a number of journalists and followers spoke on Twitter about systematic insult and racism against the "black continent", despite its rich talents.

However, the controversy over the organization of the African Cup of Nations was resolved, after the Confederation of African Football (CAF) confirmed - in a joint statement with host Cameroon - the holding of the African Cup of Nations from January 9 to February 6 2022. .

The joint statement issued today indicated that the tournament will be held on time with the announcement of its medical protocol, and the organizing committee stipulated that fans wishing to attend must be vaccinated with a pre-match examination.

Africa.. "The slanted precaution"

Through the hashtag "Alkan", the pioneers of social networking sites interacted with the news of European pressure.

The "Eighth Newsletter - your publication" (12/17/2121) monitored the most prominent interactions.

And Mohamed Fathi sarcastically tweeted, “The English Premier League matches are being held and postponed behind each other, but John and Michael there see that it is the African Championship that causes them problems.”

Journalist Mahmoud Dia wrote, "The European League is normal, playing in 12 countries, and players move from everywhere. And the cup is playing normal against the desire of part of the players and amid the spread of the Corona virus in Brazil, but in Africa, why is there fear for players from Corona and the new mutant."

As for Amir Abdel Halim, he used the phrase “the oblique wall” (the leaning wall) as an appropriate description of the idea of ​​European clubs pressing for the African Nations Cup to be postponed under the pretext of playing it in January in the middle of the season, and under the pretext of fear of the new Corona mutant (Amicron).

And the tweeter adds that the same clubs will still have to leave their players to participate in the World Cup next year in the winter season, in the middle of the season.

However, Mahmoud Mustafa commented that "the only tournament that plays in the middle of the season is the African Championship, and they have the right to do so because they want their professional players who pay them money to win championships. Changing the date of the tournament is the solution."
