This is a great piece, loved it. Just one error: Senegal was not the defending champion coming into the final of AFCON 2025. That was Côte d'Ivoire, which defeated Nigeria to win AFCON 2023.
The timeline format realy brought the tension to life here. I usualy don't follow African football as closely as I should, but this made me feel like I was watching it unfold. The emotional weight of those final moments came through perfectly.
