AFCON 2025: Egypt coach Hossam Hassan in trouble?

Egyptian coach Hossam Hassan finds himself at the center of controversy following the Pharaoh’s victory over Benin.

Reports indicate that the coach made provocative gestures toward Moroccan fans in the stadium, behavior that did not escape the attention of officials from the Confederation of African Football (CAF).

In light of these incidents, African football’s governing body could launch an immediate disciplinary investigation.

If the allegations are proven, Hassan faces heavy sanctions, ranging from a substantial fine to a suspension from the bench, which would tarnish his team’s recent sporting successes.
