Total and utter chaos and a Senegal win. The end of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations saw the Teranga Lions lift the trophy for the second time in the last three editions.
Senegals well-deserved winIt was a deserved victory for Senegal and in particular their talisman Sadio Mane, who took on the role of peacemaker in persuading his teammates to return to the field and complete the final against Morocco in Rabat on Sunday.
Senegal had a right to feel deeply aggrieved in stoppage time when Morocco were awarded a soft penalty, just minutes after the Teranga Lions had seen a goal dubiously ruled out by DRC referee Jean Jacques Ndala.
