CAF Slams $930,000 Fine On Morocco, Senegal Over AFCON Final Chaos

It would be recalled that the final degenerated into chaos in the closing moments when Senegal’s goal was disallowed for a foul on Hakimi.
A few minutes later, Morocco were awarded a contentious penalty, leading Senegal players to stage a walk out from the field before they returned after 20 minutes.
The match then went to extra time and Pape Gueye scored to give Senegal a second AFCON title.
AdvertisementCAF accused Senegal, and Morocco of violating the CAF Disciplinary Code, principles of fair play and integrity during the game in a statement on their website.
The unsporting conduct of their players and the technical staff also brought the game into disrepute.
