FIFA has ruled that Equatorial Guinea captain Emilio Nsue, who won the Golden Boot as the top goalscorer at the Africa Cup of Nations earlier this year, was never eligible to represent the African nation throughout his 11-year international career.

🇬🇶 As a result, Equatorial Guinea has been stripped of their 2026 FIFA World Cup qualification victories against Namibia and Liberia, both of which they won 1-0 thanks to Nsue’s goals.

❌ Emilio Nsue has been banned from all international football for six months.

💲 Additionally, the Equatoguinean Football Federation has been fined 150,000 Swiss francs ($164,000, £129,000).
