Despite online claims, the AFCON trophy was not hidden in a Senegalese military base, according to France 24.

In the wake of the Confederation of African Football's recent decision to strip Senegal of its AFCON title and declare Morocco the winners, some online are claiming that the AFCON trophy has been hidden away in a military base in Senegal. But as France 24's Charlotte Hughes explains, this rumour is not true, and the footage some internet users have been using to make the false claim has been taken out of its original context.
