According tp Mpitsang  Olivier tested positive a "number of  weeks ago for Covid - but when was that mumber of weeks ago?   He was since tested and was negative, but his training was interrupted and that was why he was not selected.    Whether the above is true is another question.

That's fair enough if it's true.

If it was true - why was he in he squad in the first instance?    The squad was announced 2 weeks ago - so if  he was positive then he would not have been in the squad at all.   The reason given  when  selecting the playing team fourteen days later  and exclude him because of Covid sounds weird to me.      That means he was not positive for at least 14 days when he was in full training.

I do not trust the set-up at all - when they make a foul-up  with selections and the me dia attacks them  - voila a reason is given whether true or false.
