The Atlas Lions have dominated the game against Namibia’s Brave Warriors, Sunday, in Egypt’s Al Salam stadium. It was only after a series of missed opportunities, that a goal was scored by Namibian striker Itamunua Keimuine, allowing the Moroccan team to win the match.
Egypt, which hosts the 32nd edition of the Africa Cup of Nations, released a music video that cropped Morocco's map. The Egyptian federation was quick to react to the wave of anger, apologizing to the Kingdom and removing the video from Youtube.
The Confederation of African Football has given the go-ahead to the Royal Moroccan Football Federation to replace Abderrazak Hamdallah, who picked up an injury, by Moroccan championship player Abdelkrim Baadi. Meanwhile, Achraf Dari joined the Atlas Lions in Egypt, replacing Manuel Da Costa.
