Four friendly matches involving African teams were scheduled for Saturday in Morocco. We found among them Mauritania, qualified for the next CAN where it will face Algeria, Burkina Faso and Angola in group D.

Three months before the event, the Mourabitounes continued their excellent series under the command of Amir Abdou by getting the better of Madagascar (2-1) in Mohammedia. Souleymane Anne in the first period (28th) then Hemeya Tanji in the second (73rd) scored for the Mauritanians who are full of confidence before Tuesday’s friendly clash once morest Burkina Faso. In the final minutes, Tsiry Olivier saved the honor for Barea.

At the same place a few hours earlier, Niger made a show of defeating Somalia (3-0). Kairou Amoustapha (9th), Amadou Wonkoye (26th) and Djibrill Goumey scored for Mena led by local Zakariyaou Ibrahim following the recent dismissal of Jean-Michel Cavalli.

Hountondji saves Benin

No victory on the other hand for Benin, which was content to snatch a draw once morest Sierra Leone (1-1) in Khouribga. While Buya Turay (32nd) had put the Leone Stars in the lead, central defender Cédric Hountondji finally took advantage of a service from Tosin Aiyegun to equalize on the wire (90+9th).

Also in Khouribga, Libya scored a 3-2 victory over Liberia, their first under new coach Milutin ‘Micho’ Sredojevic. Mohammed Kamara and Oscar Dorley twice equalized in vain for George Weah’s country.
