World football governing body, FIFA have banned Ghanian referee Joseph
Lamptey for life due to his manipulation of the FIFA 2018 World Cup
qualifier between South Africa and Senegal on November 12, 2016 that
ended 2-1 in favor of South Africa.
The game ended 2-1 but FIFA launched an investigation into the referee
after he awarded a dubious penalty to South Africa for the opening goal
of the game, and FIFA decided to ban him, but his assistant referees
have been cleared of any wrongdoing.
