    CAF officially overturned Senegal’s AFCON final win and awarded Morocco a 3-0 victory by forfeit, stripping Senegal of the title. The ruling followed Senegal’s walk-off protest during the final, which the Appeal Board found breached tournament regulations.

Reuters reported Senegal plan to challenge the ruling at the Court of Arbitration for Sport.

    Bayern Munich could hand 16-year-old Leonard Prescott a record-setting Champions League debut because of a severe goalkeeping shortage. With multiple senior keepers unavailable, the Under-19 starter has become a genuine option for Vincent Kompany against Atalanta. Manuel Neuer remains out, Jonas Urbig is recovering from concussion, and Sven Ulreich is also injured, leaving Bayern stretched in a key position. Prescott would need special clearance to play at night because of his age under German child protection rules.

    Liam Rosenior said Chelsea are anxiously waiting on Trevoh Chalobah after the defender suffered a high ankle sprain in the 3-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain. The injury deepened Chelsea’s defensive problems during a night that ended with the club’s heaviest aggregate knockout defeat. Chalobah was stretchered off after Chelsea had already used all five substitutions, forcing the team to finish with 10 men. Rosenior said the side could not afford another defensive blow, especially with other defenders already missing before kick-off.

    Arne Slot pushed back against Jamie Carragher’s claim that Liverpool now look like a group of individuals, insisting his players still showed collective spirit. He accepted there were wider cohesion problems, but said the team did not give up after conceding late against Tottenham.

Slot replied that, despite repeated setbacks and a toxic atmosphere, his players kept fighting and therefore did not deserve that particular criticism.

    Andy Gray said he was flabbergasted that Manchester United sold Scott McTominay, arguing the midfielder had always contributed and should have played more. The criticism has grown louder after McTominay’s outstanding first season with Napoli brought both team and individual success. McTominay left United for Napoli in a £26 million deal and quickly became a central figure, helping the club win the title and later being named Serie A Player of the Year. Gray said he sees no reason for the midfielder to return to Britain unless a truly massive club makes a move.

    Jamie Carragher said Arne Slot now faces a very difficult task to rebuild trust with Liverpool supporters after boos rang out at Anfield following the draw with Tottenham. He described the crowd reaction as a major warning sign during a worsening season. Liverpool’s failure to beat Tottenham left them fifth and deepened concern over their slide from last season’s title success. Carragher said the visible frustration in the stadium, including boos and fans leaving early, showed that the relationship between the manager and the crowd had shifted sharply.

    Pedro Porro said Tottenham’s squad supported Igor Tudor’s decision to replace Antonin Kinsky early against Atletico Madrid, insisting it was done to protect the goalkeeper. The defender framed the move as support for a team-mate rather than punishment after a disastrous opening. Kinsky was taken off after Tottenham fell 3-0 down inside 17 minutes, having made mistakes in the build-up to two goals. Speaking later, Porro said the dressing room understood Tudor’s thinking and that he personally told Kinsky football setbacks happen and recovery must start immediately.

    Liam Rosenior is set to meet PGMOL in person after Chelsea’s controversial defeat to Newcastle, with the discussion focused on refereeing decisions rather than the pre-match huddle that drew widespread attention. The manager wants a deeper explanation of key calls from the match. Chelsea’s players were seen in an unusual huddle involving referee Paul Tierney before kick-off, which quickly became a major talking point. Rosenior later said his concern was not that incident itself, but his view of several decisions during the game, prompting a planned face-to-face meeting.

    Carlo Ancelotti has left Neymar out of Brazil’s latest squad, saying the forward is not yet physically ready despite his return to action with Santos. The coach stressed that selection was based on fitness levels, not technical quality or long-term World Cup potential. Neymar recently played 90 minutes after a lengthy recovery from knee surgery, but Ancelotti said he and his staff do not believe the forward is at 100 percent yet. Brazil want fully fit players for the upcoming friendlies, while still leaving open the chance of Neymar making the World Cup squad later.
