Claims circulating online that the result of the 2026 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) final has been overturned are completely false. The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has not issued any statement reversing the match's outcome.

The final, played on March 15, 2026, saw Senegal defeat Morocco 1-0 after extra time. This result was officially confirmed by CAF and has been widely reported by all major sports news outlets. The trophy presentation proceeded as normal following the match.

Such rumors of result reversals are not uncommon following major sporting events but are typically baseless. Fans are advised to rely on official communications from governing bodies like CAF for accurate information.
