After a 15 minutes walkout following the award of a penalty to hosts Morocco, Senegal on Sunday won the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).
The Teranga Lions of Senegal eventually defeated the Atlas Lions of Morocco by a lone goal scored by Pape Gueye.
The goal was scored after Brahim Diaz lost a penalty kick that led to an initial walkout by the Senegalese.
