Malawi head coach Mario Marinica was understandably upset with the defeat which has seen them get knocked out of AFCON.He took a dig at the preferential treatment given to players from the bigger nations. Marinica said:“You wouldn’t see Sadio Mane washing his own underpants and hanging them on a bush to dry. Gambia have the same problem, and there are different standards here, teams are being treated differently.”He added:“We talk about inclusion, we want to have minnows, small teams doing fantastic things, but when it comes to the latter stages, people don’t fancy us playing against Cape Verde and not Senegal playing Morocco. Certain questions have to be asked; why are these things happening to us, why only to the smaller teams, why only to Comoros, Gambia, us?”The Malawi coach added that he has officially registered his complaints and hopes to see a change in the future.“I’ve asked my fellow colleagues and team leaders to lodge a formal complaint. I complained to the managers of the estate, and at the current [hotel] we struggled for three days before things were sorted out. I couldn’t have milk for coffee, they said the milk was finished until tomorrow.”Marinica concluded:“We are treated like second-class citizens, but if you’re a hotel manager and you see this happening, you take charge, you can’t allow it in this day and age, at this level of competition.”Sadio Mane might face his Liverpool teammate Mo Salah in the finalSadio Mane helped Senegal seal a spot in the last eight, scoring two goals at AFCON 2021.
