Algeria needed a brilliant goal from Adil Boulbina late in extra time to beat Congo 1-0, and Amad Diallo and Yan Diomande scored and set up each other’s goals as Côte d’Ivoire beat Burkina Faso 3-0. Bazoumana Touré sealed the victory for the Elephants.

The defending champions face Egypt in Agadir in the final quarter-final game on Saturday, after Algeria face Nigeria in Marrakech.

Mali face 2021 winners Senegal in the first quarter-final game in Tangier on Friday, before host country Morocco hosts five-time winners Cameroon at Rabat’s nearly 70,000-capacity Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium, where the winner will also play the semi-final and final on January 18, if they make it that far.

The winner of Morocco’s quarter-final against Cameroon will face the winner of Algeria vs. Nigeria on January 14th.

The other semi-final – between the winners of Mali x Senegal and Egypt x Ivory Coast – will be played on the same day, in Tangier.
