Visa friction affecting African football tourism: The week’s biggest travel shockwaves are coming from entry denials—Ghana midfielder Thomas Partey was refused entry to Canada for the opener, and Senegalese supporters were also reported denied visas for the U.S., adding to concerns about uneven access for African fans and teams.
