Morocco Eyes Fourth Straight Win Over Zambia in AFCON Group Clash
The Morocco squad targets a memorable sign-off as they face Zambia on Monday evening, in the final act of the Africa Cup of Nations group stage.
They are chasing a fourth consecutive win over Zambia in official meetings, a first in the two nations' head-to-head history.
Morocco and Zambia have met 22 times, with 14 victories for the Atlas Lions, two draws, and Zambia winning six.
The streak of Morocco wins over Zambia began at AFCON 2023 with a 1-0 triumph courtesy of Hakim Ziyech.
Morocco later registered wins both home and away in World Cup 2026 qualifiers, 2-1 and 2-0, respectively.
Zambia's last official victory over Morocco dates back to the 1994 World Cup qualifiers, a 2-1 result.
Currently, Morocco sits atop Group A with four points, two ahead of both Mali and Zambia, while Comoros has one.
Everything points to a tense clash, with fans expecting drama and goals.
Punchline 1: If Morocco keep this streak, the trophy will file a restraining order against boredom.
Punchline 2: And if Zambia surprise everyone, the press conference will need subtitles for the crowd's shouts—it's football, folks!
