An amusing scene has recently gone viral on social media.

In the video, the fan approaches Aguerd and jokingly asks, "You have to let Senegal win the Africa Cup of Nations, right?"The defender replies with a smile: "No, I can't... I can't." Seizing the moment, the Senegalese supporter snaps a photo with Aguerd, adding with a grin: "So, see you in the final—Morocco versus Senegal!"It's worth noting that Morocco will host the Africa Cup of Nations from December 21, 2025 to January 18, 2026.
