Senegal's national team stars have made a defiant statement by parading the Africa Cup of Nations trophy in front of a sold-out crowd at the Stade de France.

The Senegalese Football Federation (FSF) has officially appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) against the Confederation of African Football (CAF) and the Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF).

The Senegalese Football Federation has lodged an official appeal.

Senegal midfielder Idrissa Gueye has launched a scathing attack on the Confederation of African Football (CAF) after seeing his nation sensationally stripped of their Africa Cup of Nations title. The Everton veteran described the ruling as "ridiculous" following a controversial appeal board decision that awarded the trophy to Morocco. Despite the off-field drama, Gueye insists the Lions of Teranga remain the rightful champions of the continent.

The fallout from the Africa Cup of Nations final has reached a boiling point after a senior official at the Confederation of African Football (CAF) broke ranks to slam his own governing body.
