Senegal's national football team displayed the Africa Cup of Nations trophy during a friendly match against Peru at the Stade de France on Saturday, March 28, 2026. The team went on to win the match 2-0.
This public exhibition of the trophy comes after the Confederation of African Football (CAF) officially stripped Senegal of the 2025 AFCON title earlier this month. CAF's disciplinary board awarded the championship to Morocco following a successful appeal over an ineligible player fielded by Senegal during the tournament.
The Senegalese Football Federation has maintained its claim to the title and is contesting the decision through legal channels at the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS). The friendly match served as a preparatory fixture for both teams ahead of upcoming international competitions.
