This was the AFCON tournament: hosted by Morocco. Why the CAF didn’t step in is completely beyond me.

The sad-ass Moroccans had to steal their AFCON title in the courts.

Fucking losers.

Damn those kids should be charged. And so should the adults who instructed them to do that.

Learning moment (copied from the internet):

Tactical Disruption: In pouring rain, goalkeepers rely heavily on towels to wipe water and mud off their gloves to maintain control of the ball. Taking away the towel forced the opposition goalkeepers to play with slick, wet gloves, increasing the likelihood of fumbles and goals.

Sideline Interference: The tactic was so disruptive that Senegal’s reserve goalkeeper, Yehvann Diouf, essentially spent the match on "towel protection duty" along the sidelines, going as far as sprinting across the pitch or shielding the towels with his body to stop Moroccan ball boys and substitute players from swiping them.

Cultural Superstitions: On social media platforms like Reddit, discussions revealed that some fans and sideline staff suspected the opposing goalkeepers might be using the towels to conceal traditional charms or juju (a form of West African black magic/superstition).

I had no idea where the wird "juju" came from and now I do!
