AFCON 2025 – "Where are the towels?": Dakar teases Morocco again

The towel incident, which emerged during the Africa Cup of Nations final, continues to fuel banter well beyond the pitch. Ever since Senegal's triumph, the scene has become a popular symbol, widely shared and parodied on social networks, to the point of becoming one of the most talked-about moments of this AFCON.

In Dakar, during the parade honoring the Lions of Teranga, the story reached a new level. Welcomed as heroes in the streets of the capital, the players were then received by the country's highest authorities, in a festive and jubilant atmosphere.

It was there that the Senegalese Prime Minister made a remark that instantly went viral, addressing the substitute goalkeeper who unintentionally became the face of the incident:

A good-natured tease, destined to become a lasting part of this final's folklore.
