The Confederation of African Football (CAF) Disciplinary Board has announced a decision regarding the final of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON). The board has ruled on a disciplinary matter stemming from the match where Senegal defeated Morocco.
According to the official CAF statement, the disciplinary proceedings were initiated following incidents during and after the final. The board reviewed reports from match officials and the organizing committee.
The ruling imposes sanctions on the Senegalese Football Federation, including a fine. However, contrary to initial reports, the CAF has not stripped Senegal of the AFCON title. The trophy and championship status remain with Senegal.
The decision, dated March 2026, is subject to appeal within CAF's judicial bodies. The federation has acknowledged the ruling and is reviewing its options.
