What Happened
CAF President Patrice Motsepe rejected Senegal's corruption accusations regarding the body's decision to strip Senegal of its AFCON title and award it to Morocco. The original final on January 18 saw Senegal win 1-0, but CAF awarded Morocco a 3-0 victory on March 17, citing regulations about players leaving the field. Senegalese players walked off after a controversial penalty. Senegal appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
