Inhlangano eqapha ezokubheja ikhiphe isixwayiso esingaphansi (esibizwa ngokuthi “yellow warning”) mayelana nekhadi elibomvu likaThemba Zwane ngenkathi ihlola ubungozi be-match-fixing eNdebeni Yomhlaba.
I-FIFA ayitholanga bufakazi bokubheja okungabazisayo noma ukuthengwa komdlalo, kanti isijeziso sikaZwane sokungadlali imidlalo emithathu saqhubeka ngemuva kokuba iNingizimu Afrika ihlulwe esicelweni sayo sokudlulisa icala.
Ikhadi elibomvu lomdlali weBafana Bafana, uThemba Zwane, emdlalweni neMexico liphawulwe embikweni ohlola izinkinga ezingaba khona zokubheja kwiNdebe Yomhlaba.
Nokho, lesi sixwayiso (esibizwa ngokuthi “yellow warning”) asisho ukuthi kwakukhona ukukhohlisa emdlalweni.
I-Athletic ibike ukuthi ikhadi elibomvu likaZwane lalingesinye sezigameko eziyisikhombisa eziphawulwe yi-Group of Copenhagen.
Leli qembu elizimele lasungulwa yi-Council of Europe ukuze liqaphe amathuba okukhohliswa kwemidlalo.
Lisebenzisa amazinga amane ezixwayiso. Okuluhlaza okotshani kusho isimo esijwayelekile, okuphuzi kusho isimo esikhathazayo kancane, oku-orange kusho isimo esibi kakhulu, kanti okubomvu kuyisixwayiso esikhulu kunazo zonke.
Leli qembu labuka imidlalo engu-104 yeNdebe Yomhlaba lafaka imidlalo engu-15 ngaphansi kokuqashwa okucophelelayo.
UZwane wakhishwa enkundleni ngomzuzu ka-84 emdlalweni iBafana eyahlulwa kuwo yiMexico ngo-2-0 ngomhlaka-11 kuNhlangulana.
Washaya uRoberto Alvarado ebusweni ngengalo yakhe ngenkathi ezama ukuvimba lo mdlali waseMexico.
Abantu abaningi baseNingizimu Afrika babekholelwa ukuthi lokhu kushayisana kwakungahleliwe.
Ikhadi elibomvu lakhishwa ngemuva kokuba unompempe uWilton Sampaio ehlole isigameko kusetshenziswa i-VAR.
Kamuva uZwane wathola isijeziso sokungadlali imidlalo emithathu. INingizimu Afrika yafaka isicelo sokudlulisa icala kodwa yahlulwa.
Umbiko wokubheja uphinde wakhombisa ukukhathazeka ngemakethe yokubheja engu-$4.8 million ehlobene nomdlalo iSpain eyawudlala ngokulingana neCape Verde.
Ukubambezeleka okukhulu kwe-VAR ngaphambi kokuba igoli leSpain lihoxiswe emdlalweni neSaudi Arabia nakho kwaphawulwa. Izixwayiso eziphuzi zingabangelwa ukushintsha okungazelelwe kwamathuba okubheja, amahemuhemu ezinkundleni zokuxhumana noma ulwazi oluvela kweminye imithombo.
Umbiko we-FIFA uqobo awutholanga bufakazi bokubheja okusolisayo noma izimpawu zokuthi kukhona umdlalo weNdebe Yomhlaba ongahambanga ngendlela.
Esithombeni esingenhla: UThemba Zwane wakhishelwa ngaphandle ngesikhathi iBafana Bafana ihlulwa yiMexico emdlalweni weNdebe Yomhlaba.
