Egypt asks to replay controversial soccer match against Senegal
Egypt, which has been eliminated from the 2022 World Cup, accused Senegalese fans of fostering an atmosphere of “terrorism” by pointing lasers and throwing objects at the Egyptian players.
Egypt has officially requested a rematch of its men’s association football (soccer) match against Senegal.
