FIFA, in a dispatch letter by its Disciplinary Committee, lamented the poor organisation of the match, as well as lack of order and security at the venue of the all-important encounter.

It added that there was ‘failure to implement existing safety rules and failure to ensure that law and order are maintained in the stadium, invasion of the field of play and throwing of objects’.

In addition to the 150,000 CHF fine, Nigeria will play its next home match without fans.
