The Confederation of African Football (CAF) says it has collected recent match reports and video evidence and is investigating potentially unacceptable behaviour from some players and officials for incidents during the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) tournament in Morocco.
The fixtures under investigation are the quarter-final matches between Cameroon and Morocco, as well as Algeria and Nigeria.
CAF has referred the matters to the Disciplinary Board and has called for appropriate action to be taken if the identified persons were to be found guilty of any wrongdoing.
CAF is also reviewing footage of an incident involving members of the media who allegedly misbehaved in the mixed zone area.
