Ahmed Musa accepts referee’s apology for disallowed goal against South Africa


Super Eagles skipper, Ahmed Musa, says he has forgiven Gambian referee, Bakary Gassama, after his errors cost Nigeria two goals and perhaps a win during the clash against the Bafana Bafana of South Africa. During last Saturday’s 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying, Gassama and his assistants had chalked off two Nigeria goals for offside but replays showed otherwise.
Nigeria were held to 1-1 draw by Bafana Bafana but managed to stage a return to the continental championship for the first time since 2013 as they only needed a point.
At the end of the match, played at the FNB Stadium Johannesburg, the Super Eagles skipper took to the social media to question the calls, also poking at CAF.
The referee, however, admitted his errors while saying sorry to Musa and Nigeria for the mistakes.
