Décision de la CAF concernant Maroc - Sénégal: La réaction de la presse internationale
The CAF appeals committee has shaken the football world by stripping Senegal of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations trophy and awarding it, by default, to Morocco. The news immediately overshadowed Tuesday's Champions League match. Numerous media outlets around the world reacted strongly.
Spain outraged
In Spain, the Madrid-based newspaper Marca is calling it a global scandal. "In an unexpected turn of events, Morocco has been named champion of the Africa Cup of Nations by the CAF," it reads. AS , another Madrid-based newspaper, echoes this sentiment, headlining its website "Global Scandal." "The CAF published an unbelievable statement two months after the Africa Cup of Nations final, stripping Senegal of the continental title and awarding it to Morocco," it states.
Great Britain in the News
The British newspaper The Daily Mail featured the story on its sports front page, even ahead of the Champions League results, which saw defeats for Chelsea and Manchester City. The paper described the decision as "unprecedented, 58 days later," calling it a "sensational downfall." Sky Sport followed suit, while the BBC reported on Senegal's upcoming appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).
Germany questions the timing
In Germany, Der Spiegel questions the legitimacy of a decision made "two months later" and the retroactive nature of the award given to Morocco. Kicker , another German media outlet, speaks of an "unexpected turn of events."
A divided France
In France, on RMC Sport , consultant and journalist Daniel Riolo deemed the CAF's decision "fair but belated." On L'Équipe , journalist Dave Appadoo felt that the CAF had "shot itself in the foot." According to him, this decision is completely incomprehensible.
