The Silent Protest That Shook African Football and Redefined Fair Play
Most fans focus on the fact that Senegal scored the goal and held the lead. In the eyes of a supporter, that is the end of the story. But inside the CAF headquarters, the only thing that mattered was a 15 minute window of silence.
