The Guinea Football Federation has urged the Confederation of African Football (CAF) to review the 1976 AFCON outcome, citing Morocco’s walkout and a recent ruling against Senegal.
The call follows CAF’s decision to overturn the 2025 AFCON result as a sanction on Senegal for a walkout, despite winning on the pitch.
Guinea said similar disciplinary standards should apply to historical matches.
The federation referenced the decisive 1976 clash between Morocco and Guinea, played under a four-team round-robin format.
Morocco needed a draw, while Guinea required victory to win the title.
Guinea led in the 33rd minute through Chérif Souleymane. Moroccan players briefly walked off in protest over a refereeing decision but later returned to continue the match.
Ahmed Makrouh equalised in the 86th minute, ending the game 1-1.
Morocco topped the group with five points to win the title, while Guinea finished second.Guinea argued the incident should be reassessed using principles applied in the 2025 ruling.
