Senegal coach apologises for pitch walkout

Senegal coach Pape Thiaw has apologised following a controversial incident during his team’s 1-0 win over hosts Morocco on Sunday

Thiaw briefly ordered his players to leave the pitch in protest after a penalty was awarded to Morocco’s Brahim Diaz, who had been pulled by Malick Diouf in the box.

According to Sky Sports on Monday, speaking after the match, Thiaw said: “I don’t want to go over the incidents. I apologise for the football. After reflecting on it, I made them come back on the pitch. You can react in the heat of the moment. We accept the errors of the referee. We shouldn’t have done it, but it is done, and we present our apologies to football.”

The Senegal coach acknowledged the emotional intensity of the moment and stressed the importance of professionalism and accountability, urging players and fans to focus on moving forward.
