Senegal's team doctor was a gynecologist, Koulibaly demands calm

Your team doctor for 10 years was a gynecologist

This is not satire. Senegal federation president Augustin Senghor Fall revealed that the national team's doctor for the past decade was actually a gynecologist (1) (3). Not a sports medicine specialist. A gynecologist. Fall admitted the players "did not have full confidence to depend on him" (3). The revelation has landed like a bomb after the World Cup exit to Belgium.

Koulibaly steps in: 'Do we have to humiliate ourselves like this?'

Kalidou Koulibaly has seen enough. The Senegal captain went public with a plea for calm after the federation president aired the team's dirty laundry (4). "Sommes-nous obligés de nous ridiculiser ainsi?" Koulibaly asked, "Do we have to humiliate ourselves like this?" (4). The public unraveling after the Belgium defeat is now as damaging as the result itself.

Chaos deepens after the World Cup exit

The gynecologist revelation is not an isolated story. It is part of a broader crisis. Unrest has been brewing inside the Senegal camp since the round of 32 elimination, and the president's public disclosures have only poured fuel on it (2). Your team pushed Belgium to the limit on the pitch. Off it, the foundation looks broken.
