The goal had come against the run of play, with Mauritania lively and creative during the early exchanges.Mauritania couldn't maintain the same tempo and intuition after going a goal down.

El Kaabi also bagged a brace in the Atlas Lions' opening game, a 4-0 hammering of Mauritania. Cavell noted how it's already been an historic tournament for the RS Berkane star:Saidouba Bissiri Camara had equalised, but Guinea couldn't keep pace with Morocco's intuitive movement and impressive pace and power.Walid El Karti provided plenty of invention and vision between the midfield and forward lines, while raiding full-back Mohammed Nahiri wore Guinea out on the flank.Morocco have showcased their dynamism going forward by tallying seven goals through two matches.
