The confederation of African Football has fined Ethiopia $10,000 for the violent conduct of
the team's supporters in Monday's match against Zambia, after the Ethiopian goalkeeper was given the marching order! The fans threw missiles, including plastic vuvuzelas, on to the pitch after keeper Jemal Tassew was sent off in the first half of the match that ended in a 1-1 draw!
Ethiopia's 23-year-old keeper before half-time had launched a
flying, high-footed tackle on Zambia's Chisamba Lungu, which landed both players on the floor and Tassew was stretchered off before he received his red card. Tassew will now miss two matches.
