Sky Bet has confirmed it will pay out customers who backed Morocco to lift the Africa Cup of Nations, after the Atlas Lions were officially declared winners following a highly controversial final against Senegal. The match, played on January 18, saw Senegal walk off the pitch for more than 15 minutes in protest after Morocco were awarded a late penalty. However, Morocco missed the spot-kick, providing Senegal the opportunity to win it in extra time. And that they did, as Papa Gueye scored in the fourth minute of extra time to secure a 1-0 victory for the West African nation. However, on Tuesday - two months after the final - CAF's (Confederation of African Football) appeal board overturned the result, ruling that Senegal had forfeited the match and awarding Morocco a 3-0 win. #senegal #morocco #afcon #news #skybet
