How Morocco reached the Arab Cup final
Morocco defeated Egypt 3-2 in the semi-finals on Sunday, November 8. Zouhair El Jebbary, Amine El Bidouri and Idriss Ghanam scored for the Moroccan side, while Hassan Hussein and Karim Chehata found the net for the hosts. The victory sent Marco Octavio’s team into the final and ended the host nation’s hopes of reaching the title match.
Mauritania set up a North African final
Mauritania booked the other place in the final after beating Lebanon 5-3. The result sets up an all-North African showdown in Port Said, with both teams looking to finish the fifth edition of the Arab Beach Soccer Cup by lifting the trophy.
Morocco’s campaign so far
The beach soccer Lions have delivered an attacking campaign. They opened with a 7-4 win over Lebanon, then beat Libya 7-1. Morocco also drew 5-5 with Oman before progressing on penalties, and followed that result by eliminating hosts Egypt in the semi-finals. The final against Mauritania gives the team a chance to turn that strong run into the Arab title.
