He lifted his shirt to reveal a message and was instantly booked by Egyptian referee Ghead Grisha after netting the opening goal in the Super Eagles’ 4-0 victory over Cameroon on Friday. Referee Grisha is expected to include the incident in his report for further action by FIFA. “He told me that the message on my shirt was about religion because it’s ‘thank you Jesus’,” Ighalo told KweséESPN. https://ameyawdebrah.com/plus-turns-40-wife-shares-romantic-photos-birthday-message/ Displaying unsanctioned commercial, political, religious or personal slogans or statements in undershirts are outlawed by FIFA and subject to additional sanction, mainly fines.  ]]>
