I just wanted to get... You still have to... To have an effect, you still have to have a shot at gold, don't you?

Is it acceptable?

This is just kind of lawless nonsense.

You can't have this.

This is the amateur leagues where players are going for a pint after the game and they've got, you know, it's their day job.

This is the elite tournament in AFCON for the continent of Africa.

And we have this.

I mean, as petty as it is, there wasn't an isolated incident.

Yes.

You can't have that.

You just can't.

And you can't have a team walking off because they don't like a refereeing decision either.

So there's a lot of people in the wrong here.

But that's ridiculous.

That is absolutely, as petty as it looks, it is ridiculous.

And if there's not repercussions for this and other things that have gone on at this tournament, then it will just go on again.

But how can you have people almost...

fighting with each other behind the goal when games are going on over a goalkeeper's towel.

It is just ridiculous.

What's striking, Frank, is that this seems premeditated.
