Morocco
The group stage of the Championship of African Nations (CHAN) ended yesterday after final matches in Group D were dispatched.
Two draws were recorded as Congo Republic and Angola failed to score in their match in Agadir. Congo with two earlier wins topped the group with seven points. Angola also made it through as second placed team.
In Tangiers, the other game between Cameroon and Burkina Faso ended one – all, but both teams crash out of the tournament. Sydney Sylla gave Burkina Faso a first half lead scoring just before the interval whilst Patrick Moukoko leveled for Cameroon on 53 minutes.
