The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has announced that Ghanaian referee Daniel Nii Ayi Laryea will officiate the AFCON 2025 semifinal clash between Nigeria and Morocco on January 14, 2026, at the Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium in Rabat. This appointment follows Laryea's successful performance as a central referee during the tournament, including the use of video assistant refereeing (VAR) in Morocco's quarterfinal victory over Cameroon.
With Nigeria coming off a 2-0 win against Algeria and Morocco aiming to capitalize on home advantage, Laryea's role will be crucial in maintaining order in what is expected to be a high-stakes match.
