Senegal's Africa Cup of Nations appeal to be heard 'as swiftly as possible'

Senegal thought they had won the Africa Cup of Nations for a second time

The Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas) says it will rule on Senegal's appeal "as swiftly as possible" after they were stripped of the Africa Cup of Nations title.

Senegal beat Morocco 1-0 in the final on 18 January, but that scoreline was changed to a 3-0 victory to Morocco.

Senegal's players walked off the pitch in protest when hosts Morocco were awarded a stoppage-time penalty before eventually returning.

Following an appeal by the Moroccan FA (FRMF), the Confederation of African Football (Caf) later ruled that Senegal had forfeited the match, with the "result being recorded as 3-0 in favour" of Morocco.
