Rayo Vallecano defends decision not to pay tribute to Pathé Ciss after African Cup of Nations title

Spanish club Rayo Vallecano said Sunday it did not pay tribute to its player Pathé Ciss following Senegal's Africa Cup of Nations title because of the recent tragedy involving train crashes in Spain. Rayo was taking heat from some of its fans for not honoring the central midfielder who helped Senegal in its title run that culminated with the team lifting the trophy in the final against Morocco last Sunday. Spanish media said Ciss retweeted an X post from a fan complaining that the club did not honor the player.
