AFCON 2023 - Morocco-RD Congo: Romain Saïss calls for calm

The final whistle at Morocco-RD Congo was hot. A general brawl broke out after an altercation between Walid Regragui and Chancel Mbemba. Faced with the outcry, Romain Saïss acted as mediator and tried to calm the tension. The Atlas Lions captain wrote a nice message on his social networks.

"Soccer is still sports. With tension and adrenalin and so on. What's on the pitch stays on the pitch - we all make mistakes under the pressure and the stakes of a major competition. But we mustn't get everything mixed up and leave room for an outpouring of hatred on both sides. We're all proud to represent Africa. Proud to be African, whatever our origins. Let's not divide ourselves over nonsense - it's still soccer. Let's stay united to show the best face in this AFCON and the fraternity that unites our continent," says Romain Saïss.
