Madibo banned as Zlatan celebrates the goal that felled Qatar

Zlatan hails the goal that sank your team

A World Cup moment, and Qatar were on the wrong end. Zlatan Ibrahimovic watched Bosnia's star score against your team and delivered his verdict directly: "In World Cups, stars are born. Now we have a new one" (1).

Madibo suspended five matches after horror tackle

Assim Madibo will not play again for a while. FIFA handed the Qatari midfielder a five-match suspension after a tackle that broke Ismaël Koné's leg in both places during Qatar's 6–0 friendly defeat to Canada (2). A double fracture. FIFA did not hesitate.

Fan reactions

The talk among fans online is not about Madibo's tackle but about Qatar's matchday operations. Reports are circulating of paid supporters at the World Cup, with a post on r/soccer showing people handed replica shirts, hats, and flags inside a "Fanbox" at Lumen Field in Seattle Link.
