The historic victory over Cameroon was made possible by the brilliant performance of Brahim Diaz, who opened the scoring and netted his fifth goal of the tournament, thus maintaining his lead in the top scorers list. Ismaël Saïbari capped off the match, solidifying the success of a team that confidently controlled the flow of the game.

This victory holds special significance as it marks the first for the Moroccan national team since 2004 and opens up opportunities for winning the continental title, which the team has been unable to achieve for the past 50 years. In the semifinals, the Moroccans will face the winner of the match between Nigeria and Algeria, which promises to be an exciting showdown.

In the previous stage, Senegal also secured a spot in the semifinals, narrowly defeating Mali 1-0. The only goal in this match was scored by Everton midfielder Iliman Ndiaye, who capitalized on a mistake by the opposing goalkeeper. The situation for the Malian team was complicated by the red card shown to Yves Bissouma before halftime. Senegal will play in the semifinals against the winner of the Egypt - Ivory Coast match.

Thus, the upcoming semifinals of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations promise viewers tense and spectacular encounters in the decisive stage of the tournament.
