Finale CAN 2025 : Une semaine après son revirement, la CAF acte officiellement la défaite du Sénégal (photo)
Last Tuesday, while the football world was focused on the Champions League round of 16 clash between Manchester City and Real Madrid, the CAF appeals committee announced the withdrawal of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations title from Senegal and its award to Morocco. Several days after this decision, which continues to generate controversy, the Confederation of African Football officially confirmed its decision on its official website.
In its review of the Africa Cup of Nations, the CAF has removed the images of Senegal's victory. Just a few days ago, it was Sadio Mané, trophy in hand, beaming, who graced the article. Senegal was declared the winner, clearly stated, with Morocco as the runner-up. Now, the CAF has decided to remove all references to a Senegalese victory in the final, instead placing Morocco ahead of Senegal. To illustrate the "new" champion, the CAF has replaced the photo of Senegal's triumph with a picture of the Moroccan fans.
In its previous article, CAF wrote: "Crowned champions after a controlled campaign, Senegal imposed its authority." Today, the governing body has removed this passage. Surprisingly, CAF makes no mention of Morocco's victory in its text. "The TotalEnergies 2025 CAF Africa Cup of Nations left no room for the lukewarm. From the opening whistle to the final whistle, the tournament was a succession of intense moments, fully committed duels, and figures that tell the true story of an African football match," the governing body of African football simply states.
