CAF Investigates Chaos in Senegal vs. Morocco AFCON Final
The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has initiated a formal investigation into the chaotic events that marred the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) 2025 final between Senegal and Morocco. The match, held in Morocco, saw tensions rise as Senegal's late goal was disallowed, leading to a controversial penalty for Morocco.
Senegal eventually secured a 1-0 victory in extra time, but the game was overshadowed by protests and a walk-off by the Senegalese team. Both coaches expressed contrasting emotions, with Morocco's coach criticizing the walk-off as shameful, while Senegal's coach apologized for the incident.
CAF officials had to intervene to manage the situation, which delayed the match for 17 minutes.
