FIFA Women's World Cup: Zambia team coach accused of sexual misconduct

With the #FIFAWWC less than 2 weeks away, Zambia team coach Bruce Mwape has been accused of coercing players into having sex with him in exchange for securing their spot on the team.

#BruceMwape

<h2>According to the British newspaper, Zambia team coach Bruce Mwape has been accused of coercing players into having sex with him in exchange for securing their spot on the team</h2>

Allegations of sexual misconduct have emerged against Bruce Mwape, the coach of Zambia's national women's team set to make its debut at the Women's World Cup. The case was referred to FIFA last year for investigation, as reported by The Guardian.
According to the British newspaper, Mwape has been accused of coercing players into having sex with him in exchange for securing their spot on the team. The report also mentioned other Zambian coaches and officials facing similar accusations, including the coach of the Under-17 girls' team.
Zambia Football Association President Andrew Kamanga confirmed that allegations of sexual misconduct were referred to FIFA and Zambian police last year, but he described it as "an old story" and did not disclose the names of those involved. FIFA, following its protocol, stated that its independent ethics committee would refrain from commenting on ongoing investigations.
While the Zambian Football Association launched its own investigation last year, it did not disclose the identities of the individuals implicated at the time. In September, when the association made the announcement, it emphasized its commitment to taking the allegations seriously. However, an anonymous source quoted by The Guardian alleged that the association was neglecting the allegations due to the recent success of the women's team under Mwape's guidance.
Despite these controversies, Zambia's women's team has achieved significant milestones, qualifying for the Tokyo Olympics in 2021 and the upcoming World Cup in Australia and New Zealand. In a surprising victory during a warm-up game, Zambia defeated two-time World Cup winner Germany 3-2, with captain Barbra Banda delivering a standout performance.
Barbra Banda, the team's star striker, has also faced controversy related to sex eligibility issues. She was withdrawn from the squad for the Women's African Cup of Nations last year due to a mishandled sex eligibility case. The incident sparked blame between the Zambian football association and the African soccer confederation.
Zambia is placed in Group C alongside Spain, Costa Rica, and Japan for the World Cup and will commence their campaign against Japan on July 22.

"I have to demonstrate I can be a successful coach who is successful at a major tournament" - Ronald Koeman on his second innings with the Dutch football team

Koeman was first appointed national team coach when the Netherlands failed to qualify for the 2016 Euros and the 2018 World Cup.

Ronald Koeman began his second stint as the Dutch boss by pledging to take the Netherlands back to playing attacking football.
Koeman was first appointed national team coach when the Netherlands failed to qualify for the 2016 Euros and the 2018 World Cup. He led the team to a runner-up finish in the inaugural UEFA Nations League.
But when his dream job of managing Barcelona came calling, Koeman quit the national team and moved back to his old club. But he lasted less than two seasons at Camp Nou.
And now that he&rsquo;s back with the Oranje, the 59-year-old says he will have to demonstrate that he can be a successful coach at a major tournament.

Qatar were accused of buying votes of Executive Committee members by paying them millions of dollars in 2010. And while they were cleared of any wrongdoing, here's a look back at why 2022 FIFA World Cup has been shrouded in controversy ever since.

FIFA World Cup: Why Qatar 2022 is the most controversial tournament in history

From allegations of widespread corruption to human rights abuses, we at Editorji explore why #Qatar2022 has been the most controversial #FIFAWorldCup to date. 

Qatar were accused of buying votes of FIFA Executive Committee members by paying them millions of dollars in 2010. And while they were cleared of any wrongdoing, here's a look back at why 2022 FIFA World Cup has been shrouded in controversy ever since.

12 years on since they were first granted hosting rights for the 2022 Fifa World Cup, Qatar continues to be shrouded in controversy.
First, the Middle East nation was accused of buying hosting rights, then followed the alleged abuse of human rights and now, when the country has been rebuilt from the ground up for the showpiece event, the questions still linger.
Qatar in the line of fire
Netflix&rsquo;s documentary series &lsquo;FIFA Uncovered&rsquo; has once again put the limelight on the corruption at football&rsquo;s governing body, with many wondering if the 2010 bid from the Arab nation-state was only successful because they allegedly bribed the FIFA officials.
Qatar were accused of buying the votes of Executive Committee members by paying them millions of dollars. And while they were cleared of any wrongdoing, &lsquo;FIFA Uncovered&rsquo; highlights the level of corruption that existed during that period.&nbsp;
11 out of the 22 FIFA Executive Committee members were either suspended, fined, banned for life, or prosecuted for corruption thereafter. The fact that only one among those 22 officials who awarded Russia and Qatar the hosting rights still remains at FIFA, paints a rather grim picture.
FIFA&rsquo;s multiple investigations cleared the Gulf state of any wrongdoing but the World Cup in Qatar will take place still surrounded by those allegations.
Death of migrant workers
The human cost of the World Cup has been highlighted by the media, the players &amp; coaches, and the various human rights organisations time and time again.
Some estimate between 6500 to 15000 migrant workers died while working in the excruciating heat of Qatar during 2010-2021, building the infrastructure required to host an event of such magnitude.
Many feel the Kafala system that&rsquo;s in place in the Arab states is to be blamed. Under Kafala, the employers have control over a worker&rsquo;s visa and exit permit. Human rights experts have described the system as a form of modern-day slavery.
Back in 2010, the country just had one football stadium. They spent upwards of $150 billion in building seven more venues since then. But the cost of lives destroyed remains incalculable.
Other Human rights issues
Gender equality advocates, the LGBTQ+ community, and supporters all frowned upon FIFA&rsquo;s decision to give Qatar the hosting rights in 2010. And nothing has changed in the past decade or so.
Women don&rsquo;t have equal rights. Same-sex relations are a taboo in the country which criminalises any such practices. There are even restrictions for fans travelling to Qatar regarding what they can and cannot wear in public, especially for women football fans.
While the Qatari authorities can prosecute anyone breaking the country&rsquo;s laws, certain football teams are planning to protest in their own way. At least a few European team captains are expected to wear the One Love Rainbow armbands in a show of solidarity with the LGBTQ+ community.
The Bottom Line
The Qatar World Cup is an anomaly of the highest order. No Football World Cup in the past had taken place in the winter months. No World Cup disrupted football leagues around the globe in such a way and while the world can continue debating whether they deserved it or not, the truth is there's no going back now!

Nkunku, who is the highest goal-scorer in the Bundesliga this season with 12 goals in 15 matches, becomes the latest absentee for Les Bleus. The French are already without three of their World Cup winners Paul Pogba, N'Golo Kante &amp; Presnel Kimpembe.&nbsp;

Argentina captain & PSG forward Lionel Messi has confirmed that the Qatar World Cup later this year will be his last for his country. 
Speaking to Argentine journalist Sebastian Vignolo, the 35-year-old said he's counting down the days to the World Cup. The legendary footballer further added that there's anxiety about what's going to happen since it will be his last World Cup for the country.
Messi, who first made his debut for the senior national side back in 2015, has represented Argentina a record 164 times. He's also the country's top-scorer with 90 goals. 
The 7-time Ballon d'Or winner came close to finding World Cup success back in 2014 but finished runners-up after losing 0-1 to Germany in the final. His first major trophy with Argentina came only last year when he won the Copa America title. 
And if Messi is indeed planning to call it a day on his international career after the Qatar World Cup, he and his fans will be hoping the legendary footballer can bow out with a World Cup trophy - the only thing missing from his trophy cabinet.Also read: UCL roundup - PSG held despite Messi's wondrous goal, Liverpool win 3-0

The Caadian national soccer team created history as they booked a birth at 2022 football World Cup in Qatar. Team's success can be attributed to the immigraion policy as 22 players out of 25 are immigrants or born to parents who moved to Canada.

Canada Soccer: A world within the team!

How a team filled with immigrants scored for Canadian Soccer

It literally took the entire world to help Canada qualify for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar! The Canadian Men&rsquo;s soccer team created history recently when they booked a berth in the World Cup for the 2nd time in their history. The feat is even more special as the team ranked outside the top 100 of the FIFA rankings just a short while back and the qualification for the World Cup in Qatar is the completion of a perfect underdog story.
All of Canada was rallying behind the team that thrashed Jamaica 4-0 on 27th March at home despite the near-freezing weather conditions and that shows why this team is so dear to the Canadians. This team is not just a result of years of hard work and also the welcoming nature of Canada for immigrants. In 2018 when France won the World Cup, the Didier Deschamps led side was hailed as the team that championed the cause of immigrants with 15 players in that squad had African roots. Compare that to Canada where 22 footballers from the current 25-member National squad are immigrants or born to parents who moved to Canada quite recently.
Atiba Hutchinson who was born to Trinidadian parents in Brampton is the highest capped footballer in Canadian soccer history with 94 appearances for the Maple Leafs. A cult figure of sorts in Canadian soccer, Atiba has inspired a whole new generation of soccer players who want to represent their adopted nation.
Goalkeeper Milan Borjan is another inspiring figure in Canadian soccer. The 34-year-old was born in Croatia but moved to Canadian shores in 2000 as his family was forced to escape the nation due to the Yugoslavian War.
All these men come from diverse backgrounds, different countries and certain beliefs but they all came together over the last 4 years as the Canadian Men&rsquo;s Soccer team to achieve glory and take their country to their 2nd ever World Cup.
Immigration has been a big part of Canadian foreign policy as the national economy depends heavily on the individuals who migrated looking for new opportunities. But it isn&rsquo;t just the government&rsquo;s policy that drives this magnanimous change in outlook. The Canadians were voted as the most racially tolerant society in the world in 2013 in a study conducted in 80 nations by World Values Survey.

The Canadian soccer team qualified&nbsp;for the 2022 football World&nbsp;Cup in Qatar for their 2nd appearance at football's biggest tournament. 22 of the 25-member National squad are immigrants or born to parents who moved to Canada.
