Calvin Bassey to Miss AFCON 2025 After Yellow Card vs Morocco

Nigerian defender Calvin Bassey will miss the remainder of AFCON 2025 due to a yellow card received against Morocco. This suspension comes as a blow to the Super Eagles, with key players like Frank Onyeka also at risk.

The match against Morocco saw Ghanaian referee Daniel Nii Ayi Laryea booking Bassey, who will now miss the final match against Senegal. Sadio Mane's late goal secured Senegal's spot in the final, leaving Nigeria disappointed.

The decision by the referee has sparked frustration among Nigerian fans and raised concerns about officiating.
