Eritrea football: Seven players fail to return home after international match

Seven players from the Eritrean football team, which recently achieved a historic victory in Eswatini, have failed to return home. While some teammates flew back from South Africa, these players are suspected of having absconded. Among them are goalkeeper Kubrom Solomon and veteran winger Medhanie Redie. This situation is a blow to the team, which was celebrating its return to the qualifying stages of the Africa Cup of Nations after 19 years.
