Morocco and Senegal Clash in WAFCON Group A Decider

Morocco will compete against Senegal in their final group-stage match of the 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) on August 3, 2023, at the Moulay El Hassan Stadium in Rabat, with kick-off scheduled for 21:00 local time (20:00 GMT). Morocco, having secured six points from their first two matches, aims to complete a perfect Group A campaign.

Senegal, on the other hand, needs a positive result to maintain their chances of advancing to the quarter-finals. The match rekindles a rivalry, as both teams previously met in the controversial final of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, where Senegal initially won 1-0, but the result was overturned by CAF, awarding Morocco a 3-0 victory.

This match is significant as it marks the third WAFCON meeting between the two nations, with Morocco winning both previous encounters by 1-0. Morocco's coach, Jorge Vilda, emphasized the need for his team to perform at their best, acknowledging Senegal's strength.
