Coupe de la CAF : le Hafia FC conteste la décision de la CAF et reste prêt à jouer
Le Hafia Football Club conteste la décision de la CAF concernant le match retour du premier tour préliminaire de la Coupe de la Confédération face à l’AS Douanes de Mauritanie, tout en confirmant sa disponibilité à disputer la rencontre si elle est reprogrammée.
À la suite du litige entourant cette confrontation, le club guinéen a pris acte de la décision de la Commission d’Organisation des Compétitions Interclubs de la CAF. milkshakeslot.online
Face à ce verdict dont le club n’a pas dévoilé le contenu, la direction du Hafia FC entend faire valoir ses droits devant les instances compétentes.
« Le Hafia Football Club conteste d’ores et déjà cette décision et entend faire valoir ses droits devant les juridictions compétentes de la CAF et, si cela s’avère nécessaire, devant le Tribunal Arbitral du Sport », écrit le premier triple champion d’Afrique dans un communiqué publié sur sa page Facebook.
Malgré cette contestation, le club guinéen assure vouloir respecter ses engagements sportifs et institutionnels. Le Hafia confirme ainsi sa disponibilité à jouer la rencontre en cas de reprogrammation.
« Toutefois, dans un esprit de respect des instances et de la compétition, le Hafia FC confirme sa disponibilité à disputer la rencontre à la date qui sera retenue pour sa reprogrammation. »
Dans ce contexte d’incertitude autour de cette confrontation, le club de Dixinn a également appelé son environnement à l’apaisement.
« Le Hafia FC appelle ses supporters, ainsi que l’ensemble de la famille du football guinéen, à la sérénité, au calme et au respect des procédures en cours. »
Le communiqué se termine par une déclaration de principe : « Le Hafia Football Club entend se faire respecter. »
Pour rappel, le Hafia FC et l’AS Douanes s’étaient quittés sur un match nul spectaculaire (2-2) à l’aller, en Mauritanie. Le club guinéen devait ensuite recevoir son adversaire le 11 septembre dernier pour la manche retour.
La rencontre n’a finalement pas eu lieu, l’AS Douanes n’ayant pas effectué le déplacement, en évoquant un problème logistique survenu au dernier moment. De son côté, le Hafia FC avait pris des dispositions pour organiser la rencontre, notamment avec la mise en vente des billets et la tenue de la conférence de presse d’avant match.
Après avoir saisi la Fédération guinéenne de football, qui a ensuite saisi la CAF, le Hafia FC a été informé de la position de l’instance continentale. Dans un courrier adressé à la Fédération guinéenne de football, la CAF a annoncé la non-tenue de la rencontre en raison du non-déplacement de l’adversaire et a dit que le cas sera soumis à sa commission interclubs.

Maurice: ouverture d'une enquête contre un proche du Premier ministre dans l’affaire Ravatomanga
C’est un nouveau rebondissement dans l'affaire du milliardaire malgache Mamy Ravatomanga.

Cette plainte faite auprès de la Commission contre les crimes financiers, est accompagnée d’un enregistrement audio d’une conversation sur WhatsApp. Selon le plaignant, une somme de 350 millions de roupies, soit environ 6,4 millions d’euros, aurait été réclamée en échange d’une intervention en faveur de Mamy Ravatomanga, détenu à Maurice, depuis près d'un an, et proche de l'ex-président malgache, Andry Rajoelina.
Sold-out sessions and strong fan response mark successful Ultimate Championship debut in Budapest
The inaugural World Athletics Ultimate Championship concluded in Budapest on Sunday (13) after three days of high-quality competition, sold-out sessions and a positive response from athletes, fans and media both inside the Gyula Zsivotzky National Athletics Centre and around the world.
Bringing together many of the world’s leading athletes in a compact, high-stakes championship format, the Ultimate Championship delivered a series of memorable head-to-head contests as 28 Ultimate champions were crowned.
The championship was also conceived as a platform for innovation, trialling new competition formats, technology, event presentation and ways for athletes to engage with fans. Early feedback from spectators, athletes and broadcasters has been highly encouraging.
All three sessions were sold out, 61,671 spectators attending across the three evenings of action.
World Athletics President Sebastian Coe said the response to the Ultimate Championship had demonstrated the potential of the concept.
“It has always been my mantra that athletes must be front and centre – this inaugural edition of the Ultimate Championship captured that unequivocally,” said Coe.
“This new global championship provided the platform, and our stars rose to the occasion, showcasing not only their athletics prowess as the best battled the best, but also their personalities, on and off the field of play.
“The response we have received across key stakeholders has been positive and all feedback will help to make this event even bigger and better in future. We must also repeat our thanks to Budapest and the Hungarian government for their support. I am very grateful that the government and municipal authorities have stepped up and delivered an incredible event which was watched by full crowds and audiences across the globe.”
The best against the best
A total of 352 athletes from 65 member federations participated in the Ultimate Championship, with Olympic champions, world champions, Wanda Diamond League champions, world record-holders and the season’s leading performers going head-to-head.
Athletes from 18 countries became Ultimate champions: Algeria, Botswana, Brazil, Dominican Republic, Ethiopia, Germany, Great Britain & N.I., Greece, Italy, Japan, Norway, Poland, Senegal, Sri Lanka, Sweden, Switzerland, Ukraine and United States.
Among the standout moments were Melissa Jefferson-Wooden winning the women’s sprint double with world-leading marks of 10.62 and 21.47, Kenny Bednarek completing the double in the men’s 100m and 200m, Mondo Duplantis scaling 6.20m to win the men’s pole vault, Collen Kebinatshipi producing the fifth-fastest performance in history to win the men’s 400m in 43.39, world record-holder Masai Russell completing an undefeated season in the 100m hurdles with 12.22, and Josh Kerr and Jakob Ingebrigtsen winning the men’s 1500m and 5000m respectively.
In total, 15 Hungarian all-comers’ records were set – a notable feat for a country that hosted a recent edition of the World Championships – and four world-leading marks were recorded.
Every athlete competing in Budapest went home with a share of the US$10million prize pot, with individual champions earning US$150,000.
Full stands and strong global TV and digital audiences
The new championship was met with strong demand in Budapest, with all three competition sessions reaching capacity. The event also reached audiences around the world through 48 rights-holding broadcasters representing more than 170 countries.
Interest in the Ultimate Championship was also reflected across World Athletics’ digital platforms. In just three evening sessions, more than half a million fans visited the World Athletics website, while the new World Athletics app generated huge enthusiasm as a second-screen companion to the live TV broadcast – combining modern short-form video and story-led content with gamification to create a more interactive and engaging way to experience athletics.
Over the course of the championship, the Ultimate as a subject got 1.8 billion impressions on social media. Across the Ultimate Championship and World Athletics social channels, Ultimate content generated around 400 million impressions (including video views).
Global media coverage
The inaugural championship attracted 337 members of accredited media. Across the event period, 14,600 articles and reports about the Ultimate Championship were published by media around the world, generating a potential reach of 29.3 billion.
The media programme began prior to competition with The Day Before, a new concept that replaced the traditional athlete press conference with a broader programme of athlete and media engagement, which was well received by athletes and media alike. Around 220 media members across all categories attended the red carpet and media opportunities, offering fans an early glimpse of the athletes ahead of competition. International news agencies were among those who attended, with photographers averaging 2000 images each on that day alone.
Innovation tested on and off the field
The Ultimate Championship was designed not only as a new competition but as an opportunity to test ideas that could help shape the future presentation of athletics.
Innovations included the athlete-led 200m lane draft, the reimagined field of play and event presentation, enhanced broadcast and data presentation, and interactive fan predictions and games through the World Athletics app.
The event marked the world premiere of Sony’s virtual finish line concept, creating a completely new way to experience just how close – and extraordinary – elite athletics performances can be. The innovation triggered huge enthusiasm from fans and broadcasters.
World Athletics will review data and feedback from athletes, fans, broadcasters and other stakeholders to determine which concepts can be developed for future editions of the Ultimate Championship and potentially applied elsewhere in the sport.
Athletes at the heart of Ultimate
Athlete involvement extended beyond competition itself.
The Day Before brought close to 200 athletes and ambassadors together for a red carpet, dedicated media and content sessions, the aforementioned 200m lane draft and a Kids’ Athletics Ultimate Challenge.
The event’s Ultimate Stars also played active roles in shaping the championship, putting athletes at the centre of the competition beyond their performances on the field of play. Mondo Duplantis wrote and recorded the official anthem, Noah Lyles was Ultimate MC and creative adviser, and Melissa Jefferson-Wooden and Letsile Tebogo were team captains for the Kids’ Athletics Ultimate Challenge.
The success of the inaugural edition gives World Athletics a strong platform from which to develop the Ultimate Championship in the years ahead.
