In a statement published on their official X account, the FRMF argued that the decisions rendered by the CAF Disciplinary Committee "are not proportional to the severity and seriousness" of the events that took place during the game.
Senegal claimed the title with a 1-0 victory in extra time courtesy of a Pape Gueye goal, but the match was overshadowed by disciplinary breakdowns from both sides.
The FRMF particularly criticized the sanctions involving star defender Achraf Hakimi, who was handed a two-match suspension (one deferred for a year), and forward Ismael Saibari, who received a three-match ban for "unsportsmanlike behaviour."
According to the federation, the fines against Morocco and Saibari totaled $415,000, including a specific $200,000 fine related to an incident where Moroccan ball boys and players attempted to seize a towel belonging to Senegalese goalkeeper Edouard Mendy to distract him.
CAF dismissed a formal request by Morocco to strip Senegal of the championship title on 29 January, though the governing body issued heavy penalties against the Teranga Lions.
Senegal coach Pape Thiaw was suspended for five matches for encouraging his players to temporarily abandon the pitch in protest against a late penalty awarded to Morocco, which Brahim Díaz subsequently missed.
The Senegalese Football Federation (FSF) were fined a total of $715,000 for "inappropriate fan behaviour," "unsportsmanlike conduct by players and staff," and general disciplinary violations.
While the Senegalese federation have announced they will not appeal the ruling, the Moroccan side remains firm in their challenge.
The final saw significant unrest, including Senegalese fans attempting to storm the pitch and clashing with stewards.
Meanwhile, Morocco were cited for the actions of their staff and the use of laser pointers by supporters during the match.
The match bans issued by CAF apply only to continental competitions and will not affect the players' participation in the FIFA World Cup, scheduled to kick off this June, for which both Morocco and Senegal have qualified.
The fallout from the final has extended beyond the pitch, with human rights groups in Morocco warning of a rise in "hate speech toward sub-Saharan residents" on social media.
In response to the rising tensions, officials from both Rabat and Dakar have called for calm, seeking to reaffirm the strong economic and diplomatic ties between the two nations despite the sporting friction.
