🚨⚽ DR CONGO FIRES BACK: “Focus on AFCON, Don’t Play from the Back Door” — Response to Nigeria’s FIFA Complaint 😳🔥
The drama between Nigeria and DR Congo continues to heat up! In response to Nigeria’s official complaint to FIFA over alleged ineligible players during the CAF World Cup playoffs, DR Congo’s Director of Football, Hérita Ilunga, has spoken out.
Ilunga dismissed the claims, explaining that FIFA recognizes sporting nationality, not legal nationality. He went on to challenge Nigeria directly:
“If that is the case, I advise my dear Naija brothers to focus more on the AFCON 😎.
If you can’t win on the pitch, don’t try to win from the back door. The World Cup should be contested with dignity and confidence, not through lawyers’ tricks. Bring it.”
With tensions rising, it’s clear this dispute isn’t just about paperwork — it’s about pride, honor, and proving dominance on the field.
Fans are now watching closely: Will Nigeria push harder with FIFA, or will DR Congo hold firm and maintain their playoff path?
