AFCON: Morocco at the center of another controversy

Moroccan Minister of Industry and Commerce, Ryad Mezzour, clarified that the postponement of the 2026 Women's AFCON was a decision made by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) and not Morocco. He dismissed accusations that Morocco was trying to benefit from the situation following its defeat in the 2025 AFCON. The tournament, originally scheduled from March 17 to April 3, has been rescheduled to July 25 to August 16, prompting various reactions and requiring adjustments in preparation for the participating teams.
