Ethiopia Expelled From World Cup
FIFA has announced Ethiopia’s Ethiopia’s expulsion from the qualifying campaign for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. The decision was taken by the Bureau of the Organzing Committee for the FIFA World Cup, and the results from all four matches played by Ethiopia to date in Group Eight are now cancelled.
The Emergency Committee of football’s world governing body had initially suspended the Ethiopia Football Federation (EFF) on July 29 earlier this year. The EFF’s problems began in January when its general assembly fired the federation’s president, Dr. Ashebir Woldegiorgis, and elected Ahmed Yasin to replace him.
