  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 The Senegalese protested and later rescinded their decision. They continued to play and won. The referee ended the match when the full time of play was over. If indeed the cup has been reverted to Morocco, then African football is dead and we (Concerned Sports Analysts) shall always speak ill of the Confederation of African Football (CAF).

  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 is totally unacceptable for CAF to turn around and punish Senegal for CAF’s decision.

  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?

  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

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

  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 of Morocco. The match is not open ended. It ends and all good and bad calls are cemented. There is no going back. The only person who should be penalized in this matter are the match officials. Morocco can sue CAF for but the decision cannot and should not be overturned. This will set a precedent and is bad for the game. Imperfect decisions are part of the game.

  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.

  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 one radical unconquerable parts of Nigeria to succumb. Unfortunately, we are witnessing the same scenario in our dispensation, adding to what I called "shameless" envious of themselves. My queries are : must it be black people that are best used always to bring himself down ? Must black media admit publishing controversially debated issue against his own favour highlighting concealing animosity against his fellow brothers to which no other race can. More frightening is the closeness between Senegal and Ghana, who share some equitable cultural heritage, region geographical landscape (west Africa) and equitable share of the victim of historical share of slavery.!!.
