    Senegal deserves the cup 100%!

  • Panin 1 week ago

    Why should Senegal win the cup and it was diverted to Morocco? During the match, it was very clear that the referee was officiating the match against Senegal and in favour of Morocco. The Senegalese protested and later rescin ...

    CAF officials were fully present at the scene, both the referee and the match commissioner. They made a conscious decision to continue the game after Senegal had walked off the field. That decision rests solely on CAF, and it ...

    Who gives a shit. Was it the first time a team abandoned a match. Didn't Morroco abandon their Match against Guinea to be crowned AFCON champion?

  • Obano 1 week ago

    That was found to be fake news Morocco never abandoned the match.

    You see the corruption. Arabs never accept defeat
    Morrocco did not win the Afvon so they frustrated the emmen version. What a shame that CAF still remains at its spron strings

  • Obano 1 week ago

    What corruption are you talking about? Senegal left the pitch and forfeited the game. Rules are rules brother you can't walk off the pitch.

    Games are won on the field not a country sponsored meetings

  • Obano 1 week ago

    Exactly and Senegal left the field which is why it was awarded the win. Rules are very simple you can't walk off like petulant children for 17 minutes leaving your opponents standing around on the pitch. This is professional ...

    Moroccans were not professional in 1976 match between them and guinea, but they still won.

    All that strengthens nothing for Morocco.
    The man or woman in the middle, the referee, is the one who is fully put in-charge of a particular match game.
    The match was concluded as per the referee`s official match report. An ...

    Replay the Match again on a different country soil to settle the dispute period if CAF needs to settle these Unresolved Soccer Disputes.

  • truth 1 week ago

    This is all true that Senegal abandoned the match but the problem is that the ref continued the match and Senegal won. It is not Senegal's fault that the ref decided to continue a match that should have been called in favor o ...

    Thank you. Ghanaweb needs some serious brains

  • Agya Otu 1 week ago

    Rubbish. He's not the referee. Match Commissioner's Report does not override referee's decision. In law, you cannot use an officials mistake to punish a third party, unless you can prove connivajce between the 2 parties.

  • Gyasi 1 week ago

    Referee decision on the field still stands. It's not about what the commissioner report says. Of course the game should have been called for Morocco but the ref allowed both teams to play to the end so results is the score li ...

    Then they should hold the referee responsible and not Senegal

  • VICTOR UGOCHUKWU 1 week ago

    Having read the news from this platform , I'm more disappointed as why black people are full of shooting and polling each other. Reiterate to the history, during colonialism Ghana soldiers were mobilised to fight and conquer ...

    Senegal team were cheated and rubbed but god of soccer showed up on their behalf, stressing to their hard-fought game paving at last. Protested of a purely nullified goal, unfair officiating, few minutes later caught by the w ...

    Senegalse players forfeited the game the moment they walked off the pitch. They are supposed to be professional players not petulant kids playing in the school playground. Justice has been served when Morocco appealed the dec ...

    The strongest argument for Senegal is that the match did not end when they walked off. Under standard officiating protocols, if a team leaves the pitch but returns within a reasonable timeframe (often managed at the referee's ...

    This reporting is so incredibly polished, it’s almost as if someone paid for the premium 'Pro-Morocco' package. I wonder if the 'fresh evidence' came with a gift receipt or if the bribe—I mean, the exclusive source—was ...

    CAS and AFCON are all corrupt. Who is to be blame? Is the referee and AFCON. They allowed the game to continue now they want to blame Senegal team after the won the game. CAF and AFCON are racists against Senegal National fo ...

    If Morocco eventually wins this case all the refs should be banned from officiating any CAF or FIFA game because they couldn't apply the laws of the game at a final... Senegal didn't have the whistle so why punish them. If th ...

    I am a Nigerian, In my own view,i see no reason why the final match should be awarded in favor of moroccan, because the referee should have abandoned the game as senegalese walkout from the pitch, not when the game was succes ...

    Senegal had a clear goal disallowed in regulation towards the end.
    No var
    Senegal scored only goal of the game.
    Morocco didn't score.
    Yes, you can talk about Senegal leaving pitch but Morocco didn't score.

    If the rule of the game is that the referee's decision is final then Senegal are the winners. If the referee wrongly awards a penalty, there is never a case that when the game is reviewed later the score line will be changed. ...

    So the CAF will NEVER address the towel situation...? how convenient. They're just running a smear campaign right now. Such a low down and dirty company being bought by sleepy wealthy country.
