Nearly nine months after the chaotic final of CAN 2025, Morocco and Senegal face off on Thursday before the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in Lausanne, Switzerland.
The two nations are contesting who will be officially awarded the African champion title. On the field, Senegal won the final, but the trophy was later awarded to Morocco by default.
This hearing is crucial for African football as the federations of both countries present their arguments before the CAS.
