Cameroon supporters sparked controversy after a video showed them taunting Morocco with chants of “Arab Cup” during the teams’ meeting at the Africa Cup of Nations.
In the clip circulating on social media, Cameroon fans could be heard repeating the phrase in reference to Morocco’s early exit from the 2021 FIFA Arab Cup, a tournament in which the Atlas Lions were knocked out by Algeria.
The chant was picked up in the stands as Morocco faced Cameroon, prompting angry reactions from Moroccan fans online, who saw it as an attempt to distract and provoke the team.
The video also revealed the clear use of the “Arab Cup” chant as a direct message aimed at Morocco, turning the moment into one of the most talked-about scenes around the match.
