Morocco qualified for the AFCON 2025 semi-finals by defeating Cameroon 2-0 in a controlled quarter-final in Rabat. "It’s historic. It’s been 22 years since Moroccans last saw the national team reach the semi-finals of the AFCON," said Walid Regragui, head coach of the Atlas Lions. Morocco will face the winner of Algeria vs Nigeria on January 14.
Senegal beat Mali 1-0 and also reached the semi-finals thanks to a goal from Iliman Ndiaye.
This Saturday, the final AFCON quarter-finals take place: Algeria-Nigeria will pit two formidable attacks against each other, while Egypt-Ivory Coast sees the seven-time African champions face the title holders. In their head-to-head record at the tournament, Egypt hold a clear advantage with 10 wins and just one defeat against Ivory Coast.
