CAF Executive Apologizes to Morocco for AFCON Final InjusticeFebruary 18, 2026 6:07 PM Full SummarySamir Sobha, president of the Mauritius Football Association and CAF Executive Committee member, told The Guardian that Senegal's players should have received yellow cards for leaving the field during a crucial VAR penalty, halting play for 15 minutes. Senegal still won 1-0 on Pape Gueye's extra-time goal on January 18 in Rabat, securing their second AFCON title after Édouard Mendy saved the spot kick. Sobha stressed the result stands but called for accountability, while also criticizing CAF's general secretary for an illegal term extension. Sanctions followed, including bans for coaches and captains plus hefty fines, though Morocco rejected theirs. Key TakeawayIn a candid interview, a top CAF official admitted Morocco's national team was robbed in the Africa Cup of Nations final, pleading for forgiveness over broken rules.

Snowfall Clip Revives Fan Debate Over Top Black American ActingFebruary 27, 2026 11:43 AM Full SummaryThe clip from the 2017-2023 crime drama, set amid 1980s South Central L.A.'s crack epidemic, praises Damson Idris's steely gaze as Franklin and Amin Joseph's commanding Jerome as unmatched in Black American series. Fans share rewatches, memes, and trivia like Kevin Carroll's earlier role in Paid in Full, while some binge seasons in a day. Debate flares as boosters claim it tops The Wire—praised for its 9.3 IMDb score and systemic depth—though detractors highlight Idris's Nigerian-British roots and call the comparison off-base. Snowfall's gritty authenticity and ensemble shine keep drawing loyalties. Key TakeawayA tense diner standoff between young dealer Franklin Saint and his Uncle Jerome captures eyes again, pulling fans back to FX's Snowfall three years after its end. Context & EntitiesTopics
