AFCON2025Q: Morocco seal the home soil trophy hunt, Guirassy thrashes Ethiopia once again

Just like three days ago, Morocco and Guinea showed no mercy to Central African Republic and Ethiopia, respectively. The favourites in these two clashes recorded new victories that were again more than comfortable — Morocco’s 4-0 win punched their ticket to next year’s AFCON, which will be held at their soil, while Guinea tightened the grip on the second spot in Group H after beating Ethiopia, this time with 3-0 on the scoreboard.AFCON2025Q: Lucky Egyptians extend their winning streak, Ivorians fail to do soPlayed strangely enough in Oujda, Morocco, ‘hosts’ Central African Republic seemed simply not equipped enough to create any sort of trouble for this evening’s ‘visitors’. In the span of four minutes, the Atlas Lions made it clear they wanted to seal their qualification for the continental tournament as soon as possible. Monaco’s talent, Elliese Ben Seghir, scored two goals, marking himself as the national team’s ‘next big thing’ – first in the 34th and the second in the 38th minute.🔴 BUT de Eliesse Ben Seghir face à la Centrafrique ! 🦁🇲🇦Le deuxième but en sélection du crack ! 🌟😝 pic.twitter.com/4nSGuPpH3j— TFT MOROCCO (@TFT_Morocco) October 15, 2024 🔴 BABABABAB BUT de Eliesse Ben Seghir pour le double ! 🤩🇲🇦INCROYABLE CRACK ! 🔥🌟 pic.twitter.com/16bKk688md— TFT MOROCCO (@TFT_Morocco) October 15, 2024 Youssef En-Nesiry continued the Moroccan show in the second half, converting a penalty five minutes after the restart, while Betis’ Abde Ezzalzouli finished off the ‘hosts’ in the 66th minute.⚽️GOAL | 🇨🇫 Central African Republic 0-3 Morocco 🇲🇦 | Youssef En-Nesyripic.twitter.com/VQjf1V45AF— Goals Xtra (@GoalsXtra) October 15, 2024 L Central Africa 0-4 Morocco⚽ Goal: Ezzalzouli (66′)🎯 Rahimi pic.twitter.com/owhl6GSiuX— 𝗙𝗼𝗼𝘁 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗹. (@_FootCentral) October 15, 2024 The North Africans, as always, have high aspirations and will do their best to end the qualifiers on a high note, while the Wild Beasts will try to chase after and possibly overtake Gabon in second place in Group B.When it comes to the match between Ethiopia and Guinea, well – in the match played on Saturday, it took Serhou Guirassy 45 minutes to score a hat-trick and end the game, which eventually finished with a 4-1 score. In tonight‘s rematch, the National Elephants needed only 23 minutes to score three goals, and Dortmund‘s striker scored two this time.Guirassy is in top form as he scored four goals in the last three games for Dortmund in all competitions and five goals in the last two games for Guinea (all against Ethiopia). Tonight, he opened the game in the 16th minute with a precise header after Sylla‘s superb cross. Three Ethiopia defenders were near the player but failed to outjump him.

Disastrous defending from the hosts continued and four minutes later, Guriassy was tackled in the penalty area and converted the spotkick himself for the final 3-0 score. Guinea occupies second place in Group H, below DR Congo, who won all four games so far. The next game will be a treat as the Elephants will host Congo in November.
