Senegal has emerged winner of the 2025 African Cup of Nations (AFCON) as they defeated Morocco in a controversial final match.
The Terenga Lions denied Morocco an opportunity to clinch their first ever title in 50 years on their home ground.
As much expected, the final was tension-filled with the host struggling to contain Senegal’s attacking threat.
While teams missed clinical chances, controversies would emerge in the 98th minute following Brahimi Diaz call for penalty after being pulled by Senegalese defender during a corner kick.
