CAF Rejects Morocco's Protest Against Senegal in AFCON 2025 Final
The Confederation of African Football (CAF) rejected Morocco's protest against Senegal following the AFCON 2025 final. Morocco's appeal, based on alleged violations of AFCON regulations by Senegal, was centered around Senegal temporarily leaving the pitch during the final.
CAF's disciplinary board found insufficient grounds to uphold Morocco's protest, confirming Senegal's 1-0 victory in the intense final where Pape Gueye scored the winning goal in extra time. The protest revolved around articles 82 and 84 of the AFCON regulations, which outline consequences for teams leaving the pitch prematurely or violating provisions.
Despite Morocco's efforts, CAF upheld Senegal's victory, crowning them as the champions of Africa.
