Tunisian arbitration continues its decent underwater. Having no representatives at the next World Cup for the fifth consecutive edition, it is now up to Libyan teams to refuse Tunisian referees.
Indeed, the six Libyan teams that play the Super Play-Off categorically refused Tunisian referees. However, the meetings of this mini championship take place on the Tunisian land of Radès, Sousse and Monastir.
The Libyan Football Federation has used the referee Ethiopian Bakary Gassama for the shock between Al Ittihad and Al Ahly Benghazi and will call on Arab and Libyan referees for future meetings.
The Tunisian Football Federation continues to negotiate with its Libyan counterpart to save face by placing at least a Tunisian referee, but the Libyan teams camp until then on their position.
