Senegal stormed ‍off the field in protest at a penalty awarded against them before returning to beat hosts Morocco 1-0 after extra time, and win the ⁠Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), amid farcical scenes in the ​final.

Midfielder Pape Gueye netted the 94th-minute winner on Sunday, after ‍Morocco’s star player Brahim Diaz squandered the chance to win it for the home side by fluffing the last-gasp penalty ‍in normal ⁠time following a 14-minute delay.
