Ministry of Youth and Sports is deeply concerned about the recent match between Liberia and Tunisia, which was played on March 19, 2025, at the Samuel Kanyon Doe Sports Complex in Paynesville.
The Ministry of Youth and Sports has observed, through video review, that the referee denied Lone Star two clear penalties, which significantly impacted not only the match's outcome but also Lone Star's chances of qualifying.
The Ministry believes that such critical errors by the officiating undermined the principles of fairness and integrity in the sport. As such, the issue must be addressed at the highest level.
Given the above, the Ministry is therefore requesting the Liberia Football Association (LFA) to file an official complaint with FIFA, urging them to launch a thorough investigation into the officiating of the match.
Furthermore, the Ministry of Youth and Sports requests a replay of the match to ensure that justice is served and the integrity of the game is upheld.
