Comment: Match-fixing at its worst

The farcical officiating by Egyptian referee Fahim Omar during Dynamos’ Orange Champions League first round second leg football match against MC Alger of Algeria in Algiers on Sunday cannot go unchallenged.

Omar hogged the limelight for the wrong reasons when he flashed two red cards to Dynamos and almost the whole team with yellow cards.

The Egyptian also gave the home side a dubious penalty late in injury time that was also reportedly elongated to seven minutes instead of one minute.
