President Demands Penalty Shootout For A Football Game After Watching It For Just 65 Minutes

Abdul Aziz decided he’d seen enough of the Super Cup match between Tafarrogh Zeina and Laskr and requested that the game be settled by a penalty shootout

We’ve all been there. Your team is heading for an inevitable stalemate but you’re obligated stick it out watch the full 90 minutes of drudgery unfold before your weary eyes… that is unless you’re the President of Mauritania.

Having seen 65 minutes of the Super Cup between Tafarrogh Zeina and Laksr, Mohamed Abdul Aziz, who only arrived at half-time, decided he’d seen enough and requested that the game, which was locked at 1-1, end there and then and be decided by a penalty shootout on account of his “busy” schedule.

Under significant pressure the match officials ceded to the President’s demands with Zeina Tafarrogh eventually winning the shootout, claiming glory and afterwards receiving the trophy from Abdul Aziz whose unique take on the laws of the game, if anything, is to be admired.

After the match the President said: “Finishing the game early did not break any laws – this game was a single entity and not related to any other competition. Football is famous for its flexibility, especially when all parties agree.”
