00:09I'm here at Baab Boujeloud, the main entrance to the Medina Afas.
00:13The markets are already busy behind me, and later tonight, this city hosts its final Afcom match, a round of 16 tie.
00:21But first up in Agadir, Egypt looked in control only for Benin to pull level late, taking the match beyond 90 minutes.

00:44Mohamed Salah is just playing with his minimum effort, but still he could score at least one goal.
00:50Three qualifiers, that's the most important part.
00:53We don't care who's coming, we are Egypt.
00:55We are the best team in Africa. We're shamed in seven times.
01:04Inside Fez Medina, the alleys twist a narrow full of life.
01:08Vendors offer sweets, and I can't resist trying a few.

02:44Algeria against DR Congo, and Burkina Faso versus Cote d'Ivoire,
02:48with both promising, intense, hard-fought clashes.
