The chaos of the AFCON 2025 final has spilled from the pitch into the courtroom, with Moroccan prosecutors seeking up to two years in prison for 18 Senegalese supporters.

Authorities allege the fans deliberately disrupted the final in Rabat, citing attempted pitch invasions, thrown objects, including a chair, and violence broadcast live worldwide.

The defendants deny wrongdoing, but prosecutors say surveillance footage and medical reports of injured security personnel support the charges.

Damage to the stadium is estimated at over $430,000, intensifying the legal stakes as Morocco prepares to co-host the 2030 World Cup.

What began as a heated 1-0 victory for Senegal has morphed into a diplomatic and judicial flashpoint.
