Player to Watch 🌟

Sadio Mané is one of the players you shouldn't miss today.

After four matches played, the player has recorded one goal and three assists. The latest came in the round of 16 when he perfectly set up Ibrahim Mbaye against Sudan.

A key player and true star of Senegal, Sadio Mané may have the key to help his team reach another semi-final.

Video of the Day 🎥

Neil El Aynaoui is already looking forward to the match against Cameroon. After their 1-0 win over Tanzania, Morocco has its eyes set on the goal: the final.

The 2022 World Cup semi-final places the team among the favorites for this 2025 edition. Moreover, playing at home, there's no way Morocco will miss out on this clash with Cameroon.

What's more, something quite funny has been noticed. In fact, the quarter-finals in 1988 were the same... Cameroon won 1-0. Neil El Aynaoui is thus setting the tone ahead of the match.
