Zebras fly out after allowance standoff

However, the issue was settled on Sunday night and the first batch flew out at lunch-time yesterday before five others boarded the plane at 5pm.The delay cost Zebras precious training time in Cairo and they will now head straight to the match venue this evening without a workout.According to information reaching Mmegi Sport from the Egyptian capital, the players got wind that the Egyptians had provided US$25,000 as payment to BFA.

The players then demanded to be paid their allowances from the sum.Upon return from Mauritius, BFA president Tebogo Sebego explained the situation to the players and the impasse was resolved.
