Why are Muslim players being given a separate trophy in the FIFA World Cup? Made this change in Man of the Match Award

by

The branding of the liquor company has been completely removed from the Player of the Match award given to many Muslim players who performed well in the tournament. This matter came into limelight when Morocco's star player Ismail Sabri, who scored the fastest goal of the tournament against Scotland, was chosen 'Man of the Match' for his brilliant game.

Instead, a neutral design was used, on which Superior Player of the Match and FIFA World Cup branding was written.

This list includes Egypt's Imam Ashoor, Mohammed Salah, Jordan's Ali Olwan, Iran's Ramin Rezaian, Qatar's goalkeeper Mahmoud Abunada and Ivory Coast's player Yann Diomande.
