The CAS has nearly 300 arbitrators from 87 countries, chosen for their specialist knowledge of arbitration and sports law. Around 300 cases are registered by the CAS every year.

“The Algerian Football Federation (FAF) is ready to refer the matter to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in Lausanne, in the event that the expected verdict of the International Federation (FIFA) is not favorable to the national team,” the APS reported on Tuesday, citing a member of the Federal Bureau.

The FIFA Arbitration Commission is “the only one authorized to shed light on the impartiality of the referee of the match,” says the official.

The FAF’s request “is motivated by the fact that the complaint file submitted is based on an argument and technical considerations related to arbitration that require examination by a specialized structure,” the FAF said on Monday.
