Ghana vs Chad: Pitch Invader Jailed for 100 Days
Mohammed Huzeinu's on-field disruption during Ghana’s World Cup qualifier leads to a harsh penalty, as authorities crack down on stadium security breaches.
The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has confirmed that Mohammed Huzeinu, the individual who stormed the pitch during Ghana’s World Cup qualifier against Chad, has been sentenced to 100 days in prison.
The dramatic incident unfolded last Friday during Matchday 5 of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers when Huzeinu disrupted play by invading the field. His actions could have costly consequences for the GFA, as the Confederation of African Football (CAF) may impose fines on the association.
Pitch invasions are considered serious security breaches, disrupting matches and potentially endangering players and officials.
Huzeinu’s sentencing serves as a strong warning to other fans, emphasizing the importance of maintaining order and respecting stadium regulations.
The GFA has urged supporters to exercise discipline and comply with match-day protocols to prevent sanctions and uphold Ghana’s reputation in international football.
