FIFA Found a Player Ineligible. His Team Played in the World Cup Anyway.
Officials determined that a goalkeeper from the #DRCongo did not have the correct paperwork, documents showed that Congo never finished the required documentation for Mpasi to switch his national association affiliation after playing for French youth squads.
But no action was taken, renewing questions about FIFA's governance.
FIFA officials drew up possible options, including awarding the match to #Nigeria, imposing fines, replacing Congo with Nigeria in the playoff against Jamaica, or doing nothing on the grounds that Nigeria had filed its complaint late, the documents show.
Additional correspondence about the investigation, also reviewed by The Times, included details about FIFA's actions in previous cases that matched publicly known information. A FIFA legal official not involved in the case confirmed the authenticity of the documents obtained by the Times. By @tariqpanja nytimes.com/2026/10/06/world…
