The Moroccan under-17 team won its place in the final of the African Cup of Nations, which is currently being held in Algeria, this Sunday, by winning a decisive match on penalties (6-5) once morest Mali.

The Cubs faced a strong and dangerous Malian team in attack, and Said Chiba’s players managed to cope with the attempts of their opponents, who were fierce in the duels and came close to scoring several times.

The two teams failed to decide between themselves during the regulation 90 minutes. However, thanks to a fine performance by the goalkeeper Taha Benghozil (elected best player of the match) during the penalty shootout, the Moroccans finally won their qualification for the final (6-5).

Morocco will face Senegal in the final of this AFCON, following the Senegalese beat Burkina Faso earlier in the day.
