Cameroonian football legend Joseph Antoine Bell defended Morocco following the 2025 AFCON final against Senegal. In an interview with RFI, Bell stated: “I do not feel that Morocco was particularly favored by the refereeing. The Fair Play award given to them proves this. Allegations of favoritism are therefore unfounded.”
He emphasized that all players and coaches must have full knowledge of the rules and respect them under all circumstances.
These remarks come in response to criticisms of refereeing during the final and highlight the importance of fair play and discipline in African football.
