Audience at TAS: Morocco Tried to Trap Senegal Before Being Rebutted

During the hearing at the Court of Arbitration for Sport, Morocco attempted to introduce a second report from the referee of the Africa Cup of Nations final, Jean-Jacques Ndala, to challenge the official decision. This report, intended to provide a different perspective, apparently does not exist according to CAF, which disputed its existence. The Moroccan defense also claimed that the referee was influenced by another official, but no evidence has been provided. TAS jurisprudence affirms that referees' decisions on the field are final unless corruption or bad faith is proven.
