Fans in Morocco and the Arab world are eagerly awaiting the upcoming disciplinary decisions regarding striker Abderrazak Hamdallah, following his red card during the match between the Moroccan national team and Oman in the second round of the group stage of the 2025 Arab Cup, a game that ended in a goalless draw.

Hamdallah received a direct red card after the referee judged his challenge on the Omani national team defender to be reckless. This incident sparked widespread controversy both on the field and on social media, with some considering the dismissal an excessive decision, while others believed it was justified.

According to the tournament regulations, the disciplinary committee will issue its decision after reviewing the referee's report and the match observer's report, to determine the appropriate penalty based on their assessment of the nature of the incident.

Initial expectations indicate that the player may be suspended for at least one match, with the possibility of a harsher penalty if the incident is deemed unsportsmanlike conduct. This makes the coming hours crucial in determining the player's fate for the remainder of the tournament.
