Africa-Press – Cape verde. <\/strong><\/span>Match report and free highlights as Morocco prove too strong for Comoros Islands; Selim Amallah scored after 16 minutes and Zakaria Aboukhlal struck on the final whistle to seal the win; victory sees Morocco stay top of Group C and ensures progress to the last 16 at Africa Cup of Nations<\/p>\n

Morocco proved too strong for the Comoros Islands at the Africa Cup of Nations, winning 2-0 to stay top of Group C and ensure progress to the last 16 of the finals.<\/p>\n

Selim Amallah scored after 16 minutes and Zakaria Aboukhlal struck on the final whistle to ensure the win, after Youssef En-Nesyri had a penalty saved.<\/p>\n

The score should have been significantly more one-sided had Morocco taken all their chances as they overwhelmed the tournament debutants at the Ahmadou Ahidjo Stadium.<\/p>\n

Morocco now have six points while Comoros have yet to open their account. Gabon and Ghana play their second Group C match at the same stadium later on Friday.<\/p>\n

The tournament, originally scheduled to be played in June and July 2021, will be played in Cameroon between January 9 and February 6, 2022, with Sky Sports showing all 52 games live.<\/p>\n
