Morocco vs South Africa LIVE! AFCON 2024 result, match stream and latest updates today
South Africa caused a major upset by defeating Morocco 2-0 in the Africa Cup of Nations knockout stage held in San Pedro on Tuesday. Evidence Makgopa and Teboho Mokoena scored impressive goals in the second half to eliminate the World Cup semi-finalists from the tournament.
Despite high hopes and expectations, Morocco couldn't clinch a win at the tournament in the Ivory Coast as Sofyan Amrabat was red-carded towards the end. Their bad luck in continental competitions seems to persist as they haven't won the Cup of Nations since 1976. This time, it was the muggy heat at the Laurent Pokou Stadium that got the better of them.
In the 57th minute of the game, South Africa took the lead thanks to the clever pass from midfielder Themba Zwane to the tall striker Makgopa. Makgopa kept his composure and slotted the ball past goalkeeper Yassine Bounou. Later on, Mokoena scored a fantastic free kick to secure their victory. Zwane, known for his creativity on the field, played a significant role in setting up the goal.
During the match, Morocco was given an opportunity to tie the score at 1-1 after being granted a penalty. However, Achraf Hakimi made contact with the crossbar instead, resulting in South Africa moving forward to play Cape Verde in the quarter-finals. This event will take place on Saturday in Yamoussoukro.

Blog post written at 8:12 PM by Jonathan Gorrie -- In today's fast-paced world, it's essential to take care of your mental and physical health. With so much going on around us, it's easy to become overwhelmed and stressed out. That's why it's important to prioritize self-care and make time for activities that help you unwind and relax. One great way to de-stress is through exercise. Whether it's a yoga class, a bike ride, or a leisurely walk, physical activity can do wonders for your mental health. In addition to boosting your mood and reducing feelings of anxiety, exercise can also help you stay energized and focused throughout the day. Another key aspect of self-care is getting enough sleep. Without adequate rest, it can be difficult to function at your best and maintain your overall health. So make sure to prioritize a good night's sleep, and establish a regular bedtime routine that helps you wind down and prepare for rest. Above all, remember that self-care is not selfish. Taking care of yourself is essential to your overall wellbeing, and it can help you be more present and engaged in your relationships, work, and other areas of your life. So take a little time every day to prioritize self-care, and see how much of a difference it can make in your life.
