Neighbors Day has been postponed again. Morocco – Algeria that the organizing country and its “enemy brother” dreamed of magnifying on Wednesday in Rabat during a blockbuster-style semi-final will not take place. The day after the Atlas Lions’ victory against Cameroon, the Fennecs stood up to everyone: to the organizing country which was waiting for it in four days for a tasty shock, but also and above all to their faithful, those who had arrived en masse in Marrakech among the 35,000 spectators at the Grand Stade as well as those planted in front of their screens.
The remake of the sensational 2019 semi-final that everyone dreamed of reliving never saw the light of day. Seven years after Marhez’s fantastic kick which deprived him of the final in added time, Nigeria this time did not let Algeria hope for even a minute the idea of doing another bad blow.
