Egypt was one of the great crossroads of the medieval world, with many travelers journeying there and recording their impressions of the country and its people.

CAF's appeals board on Tuesday ruled that Senegal forfeited the final by leaving the field of play without the referee's authorisation, and it awarded Morocco a default 3-0 win.

Oumy is a leading figure in contemporary Senegalese music. Her style, which blends hip-hop, African R&B and global pop, makes her one of the most exciting artists on the country's urban scene. Beyond her music career, she has also been involved in social projects within her community, participating in cultural festivals and campaigns related to the environment and equality.

After a long stay away from this land, it is returning to its own people and it is an honour for us and a relief to welcome it. This is the missing piece of the puzzle that is returning today.

History is full of Black Francophone figures who have shaped politics, culture, science, and resistance across continents. Yet too often, they remain invisible in school textbooks. These individuals challenged colonial power, redefined identity, confronted racial hierarchies, and transformed intellectual and political life in the Francophone world and beyond. From West Africa to the Caribbean, in scientific research and political activism, they forged new paths in the face of oppression and erasure, leaving legacies that continue to inspire freedom, dignity, and solidarity.

Senegal coach Pape Thiaw says he hoped the Africa Cup of Nations final against Morocco would not be Sadio Mane's last game at the tournament, insisting the former Liverpool forward could reconsider walking away from the team. His decision is no longer up to him. There is a whole people behind him, too, and they would like to see him continue, Thiaw told reporters in Rabat on the eve of the final against the host nation.
