Senegalese legend El Hadji Diouf is already fired up just hours before the CAN 2025 final between Senegal and Morocco.

With only a few hours to go before the CAN 2025 final, El Hadji Diouf is exuding total confidence in Senegal's chances. The former international assures that the tense welcome in Rabat hasn't unsettled the Lions of Teranga in the slightest.

"We love these kinds of matches. These young players are used to performing at the very highest level. What you need to remember is that Senegal has an exceptional sense of calm. Our composure is intimidating. Our talent is intimidating too," said Diouf, convinced that his country will approach this final with poise and confidence.
