Football – CAN 2022 – Morocco surprised at entry: the Mhango missile on video

Announced as one of the favorites for the final victory, the Atlas Lions started their round of 16 against Malawi in the worst possible way. At the top of Group C with seven points after a controlled group stage, Morocco had to get rid of Malawi, which is playing its first knockout match in the African Cup of Nations this Wednesday evening. And the least we can say is that the Flames threw a chill on their opponents, and this almost from the start.

Because from the 7th minute, the insolent Gabadinho Mhango surprised everyone with an exceptional gesture. After a nice percussion, the strong man from Malawi fired a shot from more than 35 meters which came to lodge right in the top corner of Yassine Bounou, scoring his third goal of the competition at the same time. Achraf Hakimi’s teammates will have to turn the situation around to avoid a cruel disappointment.
