Besiktas Midfielder Al-Musrati Slams European Media for Alleged Bias Towards Super Eagles,
-Al-Musrati’s pointing out the media’s bias is really making waves. It’s interesting how he’s shedding light on the Libyan team’s own experience in Nigeria that didn’t get as much attention.
-Al-Musrati detailed the harrowing experience of Libyan players, stating, “Libyan players were held for hours in the airport for no reason, then thrown into malfunctioning buses. They were driven for three hours to arrive in an area with high military tension.” He criticized the European media for focusing on Nigeria’s situation due to the prominence of players like Ademola Lookman, Alex Iwobi, and Wilfred Ndidi, arguing that the media overlooked the Libyan players’ plight because they lack similar fame.
-These events were not mentioned by the media because the Libyan players are not famous enough,” he remarked, adding that Nigerian players leveraged their social media presence to highlight their treatment. Al-Musrati also defended Libya’s reputation for hospitality, insisting, No national team has ever been treated poorly when visiting our country.
