There's a huge controversy surrounding the official CAF XI which was announced during the award gala that took place at the International Conference center in Accra, Ghana yesterday. According to CAF, the finest players were selected using an online voting system which allowed everybody to cast their vote and select their favorite star man in each position.
However, many have shown discontempt over the selection because either the wrong players are in the list or a wrong picture was used to depict a different player. To crown it all, the official XI on CAF's official twitter handle after series of voting was done using a polling system does not match with the "CAF XI" announced.
The picture above shows Serge Aurier's picture was used in place of Eric Bailley who according to the vote was not supposed to be on the list.
