This is a final sacred to the African Nations Championship, offered by Madagascar and Morocco (2-3) in Nairobi. In search of the 3rd coronation of their history in this competition, the Moroccans were the logical favorites of the day against Malagasy who played their first chan final, a competition reserved for players playing on the African continent.
And we can say that Madagascar was up to the event, even if the disappointment remains great given the scenario. In the 9th minute, Felicite Manohantoa announces the color of this final, being the author of a beautiful strike not far from the surface, which lobes the goalkeeper El Mehdi Al Harrar.
Surprised, Morocco has not flowed, and equalized shortly before half an hour of play via Youssef Mehri. Top scorer in the competition, Osama Lamlioui then tried the opposing defense to allow the Atlas Lions to lead for the first time in this match.
Osama Lamlioui puts on the Savior’s costume
But Madagascar players have a solid mind and are not so easily defeated. Previously scorer, Manohansoa turns into a decisive passer in order to offer an offering to Toky Rakotondrabe in the 68th minute.
While we are heading towards the end of regulation time, Osama Lamlioui will once again put on the Savior’s costume to deliver a whole people. And with the way, because it is via a distant and sumptuous lob that the Berkane player will restore the advantage to his team, and thus offer a new coronation to his country. For the third time in their history, the Atlas Lions won the African Nations Championship, while Madagascar can be proud of its career.
