A video that has been circulating on social media shows something allegedly fetishistic around Ivorian goalkeeper, Yahia Fofana’s waist while playing against the Super Eagles.
The black material around his waist, secured with a white rope, was visible when the goalkeeper was playing against the Super Eagles of Nigeria.
