After the hosts took an early lead through Semi Amallah (10th minute), it took until the 70th minute for the next goal. Youssef En-Nesyri made it 2-0 before Youssef El-Arabi put the game to bed in the 86th minute with a third for Morocco. Two minutes later, Senegal were awarded a penalty which was converted by Ismaila Sarr to produce a final score of 3-1.
