Senegal’s AFCON appeal to be heard by CAS after title awarded to Morocco

Senegal's appeal against the decision to strip them of the Africa Cup of Nations title will be heard by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).

The CAS hearing is set to begin soon after CAF awarded the title to Morocco following Senegal's disqualification for fielding an ineligible player.

The decision has been criticized by some as unfair and politically motivated.

The outcome of the CAS hearing could have significant implications for African football.
