Ben Seghir's Brilliant Brace Secures Victory for Morocco
Morocco cruised to another impressive win over the Central African Republic, dominating the match 4-0 in the AFCON 2025 Qualifiers. Eliesse Ben Seghir from AS Monaco shone bright with a stunning brace, alongside a well-taken penalty by En-Nesyri and a solo strike from Abde.
In the first half, Morocco, playing away, quickly asserted their dominance, grabbing a two-goal lead within just three minutes. Ben Seghir found the net first in the 34th minute and then again in the 37th minute, putting his team in control.
The second half continued with Morocco's momentum, as they weren't satisfied with just two goals. They added two more in the next 45 minutes: the third goal came from a confidently converted penalty by Fenerbahçe's En-Nesyri, followed by Abde from Real Betis sealing the deal with the final goal.
With this victory, Morocco has secured their qualification and remains at the top of Group B in the AFCON 2025 Qualifiers with a total of 12 points, while the Central African Republic sits in third place with only three points.
