Moroco 2-0 Senegal

Morocco defeated Senegal 2-0 in an international friendly played in Dakar, the Senegalese capital on Wednesday.

Hossine Kharja and Youssef El Arabi scored for the visitors in front of a half full Leopold Senghor Stadium, but the fans that were present were left very disappointed with how the game went, considering the impressive form of the Teranga Lions in recent times.

Kharja’s goal arrived on 10 minutes, while El Arabi put the game further out of reach for the home side 15 minutes later. At half time it was 2-0 in favour of the away side, and that is how it would remain.

Eric Geret’s men showed great composure away from home to underline their preparedness ahead of their African Cup of Nations 2012 qualification game against the Central African Republic in September.

The Terenga Lions, coached by former international Amara Traore will look to shake off this defeat when they next play Cameroon in Yaounde in their Group E AFCON qualification game next month.

Morocco have one of the most impressive teams on the continent with regards to technical ability, and they will be very pleased with this comfortable win away against a strong opponent.
