Senegal to Showcase AFCON Trophy Ahead of Peru Friendly Amid Title Dispute

Senegal will display their Africa Cup of Nations trophy before Saturday’s friendly against Peru in Paris. This follows a CAF decision to overturn their 1-0 win over Morocco and award Morocco a 3-0 victory. The Senegalese Football Federation has lodged an appeal with the Court of Arbitration for Sport. FSF president Abdoulaye Fall denounced the reversal as “the most blatant administrative robbery” and vowed a crusade for justice. Fall also revealed plans for a trophy parade at the Stade de France. “Senegal will not bend the knee and will not compromise its values,” he said, adding that the fight now transcends the football pitch.
