Morocco awarded AFCON 2025 after CAF ruling

Morocco have officially been crowned champions of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations after the Confederation of African Football (CAF) overturned the initial result of the final against Senegal. The match, played on 18 January, originally ended in a 1–0 victory for Senegal. However, it was marked by controversy when Senegalese players temporarily refused to continue play after a stoppage-time penalty was awarded to Morocco while the score was still level. After a delay of approximately 17 minutes, the game resumed. Morocco’s penalty, taken by Brahim Díaz, was saved, and Senegal later secured victory through an extra-time goal from Pape Gueye. Following a formal appeal by the Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF), CAF’s appeal board reviewed the incident and ruled that Senegal’s actions constituted a breach of tournament regulations. As a result, Senegal were deemed to have forfeited the match, which […]

Gabon’s AFCON Hopes Hang on Mozambique Clash

Gabon’s Africa Cup of Nations campaign is already at a critical stage following their 1-0 loss to Cameroon in the opening match. With qualification hopes hanging in the balance, the Panthers face a must-win encounter against Mozambique in Agadir, a fixture that could determine whether they reach the knockout phase and extend Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s long and complicated AFCON journey. For Aubameyang, this tournament may represent one of the final chances to leave a lasting mark on Africa’s biggest football stage. Like many African greats before him who never lifted the trophy, the former African Footballer of the Year has endured a frustrating relationship with the competition. Comparisons with George Weah are often drawn, as both represented nations with limited continental pedigree, making AFCON glory an uphill task. Now competing in his sixth AFCON, Aubameyang’s history at the tournament has been […]

Cameroon, Algeria and Ivory Coast start AFCON strong

Cameroon opened their Africa Cup of Nations campaign with a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Gabon in Agadir, putting behind them a turbulent build-up to the tournament. Karl Etta Eyong’s early strike proved decisive, while Algeria, Ivory Coast and Burkina Faso also started their group-stage journeys with wins on Wednesday. The Indomitable Lions arrived at the competition amid confusion and controversy. After Belgian coach Marc Brys was dismissed in unclear circumstances, local coach David Pagou was appointed to lead the team. However, Brys publicly claimed he had not been formally informed of his removal and even announced his own squad for the tournament. Matters were further complicated when Pagou unveiled his selection, leaving out established stars such as André Onana, Vincent Aboubakar and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting. The Cameroonian Football Federation (FECAFOOT) eventually clarified the situation, but combined with the injury of […]
