Another dodgy moment in the AFCON final which hasn’t been mentioned is in the Moroccan attack after the disallowed Senegalese goal that led to the Morrocan corner and penalty, a player was so offside it was untrue. The corner shouldn’t have been given in the first place. I will concede that maybe I don’t understand the offside rule any more with its talk of phases and not interfering with play but I wasn’t the only one in the pub pointing out the blatant Moroccan offside not given in the build up to the attack. |  | | |

They don’t check for offside unless it results in a goal or penalty I think.If it goes for a corner the offside doesn’t count for var. |  | | |

We should appoint a towel monitorer without further delay. Reporting directly to Nourry, obviously. |  |

Lots of fines and bans issued for the final including 5 match ban for the Senegal manager, forwards Iliman Ndiaye and Sarr received two-match bans for "unsporting behaviour towards the referee", while the Senegal Football Federation (FSF) was fined a total of $615,000 (£444,000).
Morocco forward Ismael Saibari was given a three-match ban and fined $100,000 (£72,000), while defender Hakimi was handed a two-match ban, with one game suspended for 12 months.
A bid by Morocco's football federation (FRMF) to have the result of the match overturned after Senegal players left the pitch was dismissed by Caf's disciplinary committee.
The FSF (Senegal Federation) was fined $600,000 (£434,000) for breaches of Caf's disciplinary code, with half of that sum relating to the unsporting conduct of Senegal players and technical staff, while the other $300,000 was for the improper conduct of its supporters.
Several Teranga Lions fans were involved in angry confrontations with security staff after the penalty award, with some trying to enter the pitch.
A further $15,000 ($11,000) fine was imposed after Thiaw's side received five bookings during the final.
Meanwhile, the FRMF (Morrocan Federation) has been fined $200,000 (£144,000) for the "inappropriate behaviour" of ball boys at the Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium, after repeated attempts to steal the towel of Senegal keeper Mendy from behind his goal.
A sum of $100,000 must be paid after Atlas Lions players and staff invaded the video assistant referee review area and obstructed referee Ndala's work, and the FRMF has also been fined $15,000 for use of lasers by its supporters.

So does that effectively ban the Senegal manager for the whole World Cup? |  | | |

Yes, unless an appeal is made to FIFA to act as leniently as they did to Ronaldo in the aftermath of his red card in Dublin. His obligatory ban won't take effect until after the World Cup, for some strange reason. |  | | |

No - the full BBC article says the following:
'The bans for Thiaw and the four players relate to Caf matches only and will not impact preparation for the World Cup in the US, Canada and Mexico.' | |

Senegal have now been ruled to have forfeited the game and Morocco awarded a 3-0 win.
AFCON remains undefeated, you'll never top it no matter how hard you try. | | | |

How many times did Senegal get blatantly cheated in that final now? 15?
That bloke who flubbed the penalty will be pleased I suppose. |  | | |

Not often I've watched a game and genuinely thought it was bent, but that game was bent. | | | |

I hope none of the Senegalese players have lost their medals, or the Trophy and unfortunately can't return them. [Post edited 17 Mar 22:28]

That's a precedent set for FIFA to award the World Cup to Trump 3-0 without a game being played  | |

Two months to make this VAR decision about what to do about Senegal walking off when the penalty was awarded. You would think they would have made this judgement the moment Senegal left the field. Does this mean those of us who won money on Senegal winning have to refund the bookies or they will send the heavy mob round to take our possessions? |  | | |

Might vary by bookie but I’ve seen one has said the result will stand in terms of refunds (or trying to somehow reclaim winnings on Senegal). As much as they’re crooks I think that’s right in this instance. | | | |

Morocco had the chance to win the game at the end when Senegal returned to the pitch and f*cked it up. |  |
