CAF launches investigation into AFCON final chaos after Morocco vs Senegal clash
CAF will investigate the explosive Morocco vs Senegal AFCON 2025 final that descended into chaos in Rabat on Sunday. The hosts Morocco edged Senegal 1-0 after a controversial penalty decision sparked riots in the stands. Senegal's Ismaila Sarr saw his goal disallowed, while Morocco earned a penalty which Brahim Diaz missed. The incident triggered a fan revolt and saw Senegal coach Pape Thiaw initially order his players off the pitch, before Sadio Mané convinced them to return. CAF has condemned the 'unacceptable behaviour' and is reviewing all footage to refer the matter to disciplinary bodies for sanctions. This comes as AFCON 2025 concludes with Senegal taking the title. The tournament's prize money structure confirmed Nigeria earned a special third-place bonus. For Nigerian fans, is this about unfair officiating impacting African football's biggest stage, or the need for better discipline from players and officials in high-stakes finals?
