The match was marked by controversy, with Senegal players walking off the pitch in protest after Morocco was awarded a late penalty. Brahim Diaz missed the penalty, and Senegal capitalized on the momentum shift to score the winning goal.

This victory marks a historic moment for Senegal, and Sadio Mane’s leadership played a significant role in the team’s success. Morocco, on the other hand, will have to wait for their next chance to claim the title.
