The Confederation of African Football (CAF) announced in an official statement that it has collected official reports and video footage documenting potentially unacceptable conduct by some officials during the Africa Cup of Nations quarter-final match between Morocco and Cameroon.

CAF's statement specifically points to the conduct of Samuel Eto'o, President of the Cameroonian Football Federation, who displayed disrespectful behavior in the official stand from which he was watching the match.

The governing body further clarified in its statement that the files have been referred to CAF's Disciplinary Committee for review and to take necessary action should any violations be confirmed.

This step underscores the African Football Confederation's commitment to ensuring a competitive environment governed by rules of respect and discipline, while reaffirming its rejection of any actions that undermine the spirit of fair competition.
