HT currently 0-0 though for me Jackson should have had an assist.

Mane showing bits of class.

Senegal edging it though Morocco are also looking capable at times.

Crazy scenes.

Morocco get a pen ruled by VAR in added time (which by no means was a pen imo), and Senegal players are walking off.

Edited January 18Jan 18 by Sconnie Blue

What happened was 5 mins earlier Senegal scored yet ref ruled it out (looked good) no VAR and now VAR given for Morroco and penalty rued and Senegal think its fixed so have walked.

It's a mess.

What an insane turn of events, how on earth has he struck the penalty like that??!

What a poor penalty and they end it, what about the 8 minutes of injury time anyway straight to extra time.

I’m sure the majority of Morocco fans wouldn’t want to win like that.

Thats good he missed. Mendy learned from Aguero lol

And now a cracking extra-time goal for Senegal !

What high drama we've had LOL

I thought I’d seen everything in football then the ACON Final says hold my beer.

Sarr been pretty solid all game. No nonsense and tidy.

Both sides playing hoof ball now LOL. Pretty low quality fare ...

Some nice bits of individual skill now. Still can’t get over the drama of this, unreal… we should have done that with barca in 2009

Mamadou Sarr with the obligatory BlueCo yellow card LOL

Mendy's had a very solid game tonight.

Probably jinxed him now LOL

3 minutes of additional time to go !

All done.

Nicolas Jackson African Cup of Nations Champion LOL.

Who was it that was talking about bang average players winning international finals ? 😎

Mendy probably MOTM.

Sarr did well.

Morocco properly bottled that. Especially for a team that has a better record than Argentina these past two years.

Didn't watch, but it seems like justice won the day.

Wow what drama. Senegal’s injury time goal should have stood, and the penalty to Morocco was so soft. But the panenka, at that moment - what was he thinking. Mendy has saved two panenkas that I’m aware of now (Aguero vs city).

Cracking first goal from Senegal. We should recall Jackson - serial trophy winner!

Who would you rather have? Sanchez or Mendy? both are equally terrible with their feet... Well done that man and Jackson.

Seriously? Of course they bloody would, especially in their own country.

Morocco have been getting dodgy calls all tournament, justice prevailed for sure.

AFCON is such an unserious competition.

It’s absolutely insane the amount of African players in Europes top leagues that that is the competition they have to showcase and celebrate themselves.

It’s decades behind the Copa America let alone the Euros.

WTF was that whole towel malarkey about? Serious competition Ya’know.

I was thinking on other incidents like when Zindane headbutted Marco Materazzi in the Euro final.

Afcon 2025: Morocco declared the winners after CAF overtu...

Morocco declared the winners of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations after Confederation of African Football overturns the result of their final defeat to Senegal.

Morocco have been declared the winners of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations after the Confederation of African Football (Caf) overturned the result of their final defeat to Senegal.

Senegal beat Morocco 1-0 in the final on 18 January in a match which was overshadowed when the Senegalese players refused to play after the hosts were awarded a stoppage-time penalty with the match goalless.

Following a delay of around 17 minutes, the players did eventually return and Brahim Diaz's penalty was saved before Senegal's Pape Gueye scored an extra-time winner.

However, that result has now been overturned by African football's governing body.

A statement from Caf said that Senegal are "declared to have forfeited the final match" with the "result of the match being recorded as 3-0 in favour" of Morocco.

More to follow.

I mean isn’t it normal circumstances that if any team that leaves the pitch, forfeits?
