DR Congo and Morocco were both locked on six points each ahead of their showdown, with the winner guaranteed a spot in the next round, which made their clash all the more highly anticipated.

Morocco stole the lead as early as the eighth minute, but Congo equalized in the 58th minute. Mohamed Hrimat then restored the former's lead from the penalty spot 12 minutes later, before Oussama Lamlioui added a third and consolidated their grip on the game.

Champions in 2018 and 2022, the North African giants now face another tough contest in their bid for a third title, as they face Group B winners Tanzania.

The Taifa Stars won three games in a row to make their intent clear, beating Burkina Faso, Mauritania and Madagascar to all but seal their place in the next round. Central African Republic held them to a goalless stalemate in their last group fixture, but it seemed like Tanzania had taken their feet off the pedal a bit with one eye on the last eight.
