With two matches played in the African Nations Championship (CHAN) 2024 tournament, Group A matches went down to the wire as Morocco and Zambia faced off in what was a decisive encounter for qualification.
The other three teams in the group—Kenya, Angola, DR Congo—watched this fixture closely, as its outcome could shift the dynamic of the final round, where they still face each other in varying combinations.
Morocco 3–1 Zambia – Post‑Match Snapshot
With a convincing 3–1 win over Zambia, Morocco now moves to 6 points, sealing their place in the quarter-finals of CHAN 2024.
Their goal difference has improved further, strengthening their position in the group standings. For Zambia, the defeat leaves them eliminated with 0 points and a -5 goal difference (after today’s result).
Group A Standings
| Team | Points | Goal Difference |
| Kenya | 7 | 2 |
| Morocco | 6 | 3 |
| Angola | 4 | -1 |
| DR Congo | 3 | 1 |
| Zambia | 0 | -5 |
What does this means for the race to qualify?
- Morocco, now on 6 points, has effectively secured a top-two finish. Their strong goal differential gives them a sound buffer even if they face a stiff final opponent.
- Zambia are now mathematically out of the running—zero points across three matches leaves no room for a comeback.
- Angola (4 pts) and DR Congo (3 pts) remain alive in the chase. Both must outperform Kenya in their remaining fixtures to secure qualification.
- Kenya, on 7 points, need just a draw in their final match to be certain of top spot, though goal difference becomes relevant if DR Congo or Angola mount a late challenge.

Goal Difference & Tiebreakers Still Matter
Although Morocco have advanced, the final standings for second place will hinge on the outcomes between Angola, DR Congo, and Kenya. The tiebreakers will operate in the following order if points end up tied:
- Head‑to‑head result
- Goal difference
- Total goals scored
Morocco’s robust goal difference now strengthens their case to top the group—or at least avoid slipping in a three-way tie.
