Gabon wins against Comoros

President of the Cameroonian federation for a few weeks, Samuel Eto’o delivered a message of support to Algerian journalists attacked during the weekend in Douala, on the sidelines of the CAN. “Our dear brother journalists, I would like to offer you our sincere apologies because some of our brothers were attacked in Douala, said the former attacker on Algerian television. I humbly ask you to tell these brothers that we beg your pardon. . This is not Cameroonian hospitality. I beg you to ask their forgiveness and tell them that they are at home. We are going to seize our minister and all our authorities to tell them that our brothers are in our country and they must feel safe as if they were in Algiers (…) God bless you and that your stay is in the best possible way at home in Cameroon. “

Gabon wins against the Comoros, thanks to a goal from Boupendza (1-0). The Panthers join Morocco at the top of Group C.

At half-time of the match, Gabon still leads 1-0 against the Comoros in Yaoundé.

The Comoros, who are currently playing the very first CAN match in their history, are led by Gabon at the start of the meeting. A goal signed by Boupendza, in the 16th minute of play (1-0).

In Group B, Guinea got the better of Malawi with a goal from Issiaga Sylla (35th).

Morocco showed great defensive strength to beat Ghana at the Ahmadou-Ahidjo stadium in Yaoundé (1-0). Vahid Halilhodzic’s players were particularly disciplined against fairly harmless Black Stars. The Atlas Lions made the difference at the end of the match thanks to a cross strike from Sofiane Boufal (83rd). Enough to launch their CAN 2022 perfectly in Group C. They can also thank their goalkeeper Yassine Bounou, author of a sensational parade in the second half, on a curled shot from Joseph Paintsil.

Still no goal in the clash between Morocco and Ghana as half-time is whistled. If a borderline situation could have offered a penalty to the Ghanaians after contact with André Ayew, neither the central referee nor the VAR decided to award the fault to the former OM player.

Thanks to Toulouse’s Issiaga Sylla, Guinea leads by a goal against Malawi. But nothing is done for the Guineans who remain under the threat of an equalizer.

Morocco-Ghana: 0-0

Guinea-Malawi: 1-0

After the defeat of Burkina Faso against Cameroon, during the opening match of CAN 2022 (2-1), Steeve Yago made his mea culpa on the networks. The defender of the Stallions was guilty of a very dangerous tackle on Collins Fai after less than a minute of play. A gesture which should undoubtedly have earned him an exclusion. But the Aris Limassol player finally received a simple yellow card. “I want to apologize to Collins Fai for my dangerous tackle,” Yago wrote on Twitter.

A big sigh of relief for the Lions! For its entry into contention in this CAN 2022, Senegal can say phew. The Lions won after additional time against Zimbabwe 1-0 thanks to a penalty from Sadio Mané (97th) on Monday in Bafoussam. The finalists of the 2019 edition take the lead of group B before the other match Guinea-Malawi (5 p.m.).

At the hour of play, still no goal between Senegal and Zimbabwe. Despite a clear domination, Idrissa Gueye’s partners have not yet deceived the defense of the Zimbabweans.

Despite a few chances, Senegal failed to find the loophole against Zimbabwe, who finished the first period better. Sadio Mané’s teammates have 45 minutes left to make a difference.

And it goes quite widely next to it. After the broth of the first few minutes, Zimbabwe severely tightened the bolts to avoid taking a suitcase.

Already three great situations in 5 minutes.

Just like Kadidou Koulibaly. But the Senegalese XI is quite impressive. On the Zimbawe side, the absence of Tino Kadewere the Lyonnais.

Before the kick off of this first match of Group B Senegal-Zimbabwe at 2 p.m., here are the lines:

Senegal

Dieng – Kouyaté, Sarr, Mbaye, Diallo, Ballo-Touré, Cissé – Gueye, Mané – Baldé, Dia
