Captain Romain Saiss got the Moroccans on track before the break (30th). After the break, Azzedine Ounahi (77th) and striker Youssef En-Nesyri also scored after a VAR decision (80th). Tanzania’s Novatus Miroshi had previously seen yellow-red (70th).
“It wasn’t an easy game with the heat and high humidity,” said Morocco’s successful coach Walid Regragui. “But we did it in a calm and calm manner.” Defending champions Senegal also started their tournament on Monday with a 3-0 win against Gambia. The two countries are considered the most promising candidates for the continental trophy.
