Morocco appeal after consecutive final losses

The Star

|

January 27, 2026

MOROCCO’S national football governing body, the Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF), has really set itself up to be the ultimate masters of whinging.

- HERMAN GIBBS

Moroccan football officials have an unrelenting love affair with making appeals.

Last July, following Morocco’ 3-2 loss to Nigeria in the 2025 WAFCON final, the FRMF lodged a formal complaint with CAF (Confederation of African Football) regarding “refereeing injustices”. Morocco specifically protested an 82nd-minute VAR decision that overturned a penalty for a potential handball, arguing it cost them the title.

In January 2026, following Moroc-cos 1-0 loss to Senegal in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) final, the FRMF lodged a formal complaint with CAF and FIFA (International Federation of Association Football).
