Tech-Savvy Final: Morocco-Senegal AFCON Goes High-Tech
18 January 2026
Broadcast Tech Takes Center Stage
Big preparations aim to present the AFCON final in top form.
The Africa Cup of Nations final, set for Sunday evening between Morocco and Senegal, will feature an unprecedented TV production, reflecting the major strides of Moroccan sports broadcasting through a sophisticated system with around 40 cameras.

Two Bollecam Ultra Motion cameras, plus two Crane Cams behind the goal, along with 11 Super Slow Motion angles, including two Ultra Motion angles, aim to capture every detail of the match.
The production also relies on a Spider Cam, drones for aerials, two cinema cameras for Super Motion replays, and two wireless Steadicams, plus other high end cameras, including handheld and PTZ robots.
Laurent Lachan, the renowned French director, will oversee the TV direction, following his work on the Qatar 2022 World Cup final.
This tech blitz won't change the score, but it might redefine how fans experience football.
The ball travels fast; the cameras travel faster.
If in doubt, blame the drones for the extra time.
