KAS Sheds Light on Africa Cup Final Crisis
The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) intends to hold a hearing on October 8, 2026, in Lausanne, Switzerland, regarding the complaint of the Senegal Football Federation against the decision of the Confederation of African Football (CAF), which considered that the Senegal national team lost the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations final due to withdrawal. The court confirmed that the session would be held behind closed doors and that the final decision would not be issued on the day of the hearing. The Senegalese Federation is demanding the announcement of its national team as the champion of the tournament, after requesting the cancellation of the decision to award Morocco a 3-0 victory, as indicated by the legal documents. The court responded to the requests of the parties and stated that the proceedings would not be expedited.
