Aubameyang & Gabon teammates sleep in Gambia airport ahead of Afcon qualifiers

Aubameyang has attacked the Confederation of Africa (CAF) after being forced to sleep in an airport ahead of an Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Gambia which them made to feel like “hostages”.

Upon their arrival, the Panthers were delayed at the airport with reports indicating their passports were seized despite providing their coronavirus results to the immigration officers for checks.

Pierre Emerick Aubameyang took his frustration wait on his Instagram story in the early hours of Monday, posting videos and photographs initially of his team-mates lounging around having had their passports taken from them by security.

Having arrived at 23:30 local time, Aubameyang began to show his frustration after waiting for three hours, posting a video at 02:31 that was accompanied by a caption that read: “Still waiting to enter Gambia, and we play at 4 pm. Nice.”

A follow-up soon after showed the team listening to music and joking, with Aubameyang adding that “they will not discourage us”.

Just before 06:00, Gabon were allowed into the country, just 10 hours before their scheduled kick-off.

“Finally in the bus. Thanks for the extra motivation, Gambia,” Aubameyang wrote.

Gabon lost 2-1 to Gambia as the final result of the score. Whether that was because of the previous events before the match, We are not sure.
