From AFP News Agency.
Senegal has been sensationally stripped of the Africa Cup of Nations title, with the Confederation of African Football (CAF) instead declaring Morocco champions, two months after their chaotic final.
Several Senegalese players controversially walked off the pitch in Rabat during the final on 18 January in protest when the hosts were awarded a penalty late in second-half stoppage time.
After Senegal’s players eventually returned to the pitch, Morocco missed the penalty and Pape Gueye went on to score the goal in extra time that gave his team a 1-0 victory.
