Games went down in the Africa Cup of Nations yesterday as teams rounded up their Matchday two group stage fixtures. We saw Senegal faced Guinea and Malawi took on Zimbabwe in group B while Morocco faced Comoros and Gabon took on Ghana in Group C. <\/p>\n

Senegal played a disappointing goalless draw with Guinea yesterday. Both teams failed to create that big chance of scoring yesterday, the opening goal just wouldn’t come. Sadio Mane faced his Liverpool teammate Naby Keita, both players played well yesterday but couldn’t conjure up some magic for the team. Guineans still topped the Group B table despite draw.<\/p>\n

Malawi got their first win in Group B after they came back from behind to win Zimbabwe yesterday. Zimbabwe initially took the lead after Ishmael Wadi scored a brilliant goal from Onismor Bhasera’s assist. Their lead didn’t last for long in the first half as Gabadinho Mhango scored the equalizer from Francisco Madinga’s assist. Malawi came back eventually stronger in the second half of the match and Gabadinho Mhango scored the winning goal for Malawi in the second half of the match. <\/p>\n

Morocco topped group C after they won Comoros yesterday. two wins in two games for Morocco and two points above second place, they are just one win away from securing their place in the knock out stages. Selim Amallah gave Morocco the lead in the first half of the match. Down into the second half, Youssef En-Nesyri would have doubled Morocco’s lead but he couldn’t convert from the penalty spot. Zakaria Aboukhlal scored in the final minutes of the match as Morocco extended their lead to 2-0. <\/p>\n

Gabon came back from behind to earn a point against Ghana in yesterday’s match. Gabon who were initially in a losing position, scored in the final minutes of the match and denied Ghana their first win in the tournament. Andre Ayew scored the opening goal for Ghana in the first half with Thomas Partey providing an assist for the goal. Down into the second half of the match, both teams kept pushing for more goals. Gabon finally scored after Jim Allevinah scored a brilliant goal from Guelor Kanga’s assist.<\/p>\n

Here’s how the Africa Cup of Nations group B and C table looks like after yesterday’s games.<\/p>\n
