00:01So it's kickoff in a vital matchup Ethiopia against Morocco both sides
00:14looking to join Egypt on four points at the Ethiopia defense early ball swung in
00:22free header it's an excellent save an even better challenge from Kindo to Nye on the follow-up
00:39Temeskin Keberi Tadesi has yet to concede at this tournament he played his part with the save here
00:47lovely clip ball from Rabaj the header the centre-back Sudi
00:55to lay it off into Moustache who wants to get back into the box has his hand up
01:02the cross has an opportunity but it goes short spread out by Adiri
01:09love a little dummy he clips across but he can only find the gloves of Tadesi
01:19he's done the hard work really out of position as Ethiopia strike
01:25not with any real venom
01:33Gallardo certainly created himself an opportunity he saw the run from Tivaldi
01:42I've hoped for an Ethiopia step on to it
01:48transfer Tijin
02:09Tijin
02:11but it's an easy take in the end from Tadesi
02:18well to hit the byline Rabaj no real conviction about the final ball
02:26enjoy a fruitful collaboration
02:45the latter swings it in
02:49there were certainly those in the green shirts of Ethiopia that were concerned
02:57Nasefa in the end able to let it fly by
03:04no one
03:06Ethiopia down the line from Tijin
03:12wants to cut it back
03:14fired in
03:15no wonder Ethiopia celebrates wildly
03:25their first goal
03:29the 2026 edition
03:32Benjamin Zemers
03:34young Ethiopians
03:37have struck
03:39the heart of the hosts
03:41wonderful ball played here
03:44cutback was on
03:45what a fabulous finish
03:47from Dawit Kaswa Yerdo
03:53there was no chance for El Mash
03:56that close in
03:5923 year wait
04:02for the Sakafa champions to return
04:06first under 17 crime
04:08but Morocco look for a way back
04:11cross dugout
04:13keeper was not convincing at all
04:16more than happy to see
04:18the moustache
04:19twizzle his header
04:21over the bar
04:40certainly the youth side of Ethiopia who's threatening at the
04:44got to shout for a penalty
04:50certainly the youth side of Ethiopia who's threatening at the
04:54got to shout for a penalty
05:00these coaches can use one of their two challenges
05:07if the challenge is upheld by the referee they'll not lose it
05:11if the referee doesn't agree they will lose it
05:14so we'll wait to see how this unfolds
05:21clearly gets to the ball first the creeper
05:24does put a hand out is there an offside
05:28prior
05:35in the end the referee
05:41looking to hit back from trailing here
05:46what to do about very little that early delivery to the near post
05:51is there an offside
06:02well
06:02it will be not happy
06:05with the strength of the challenge
06:16the referee
06:18on the player
06:23it does seem
06:25he's considering a booking but
06:29no card
06:31being
06:32brandished
06:42he's going to be a bit more confidently though
06:45and a lobbing shot
06:47never dipped
06:50and we hope for better
06:53from his effort
06:55Iran
06:55Ben Taleb
06:57in the Seychelles in 2001
07:00but they're looking for
07:02just a second ever win
07:03at this age group in the African cup of nations
07:07they may only be halfway through
07:08but Ethiopia lead
07:10Morocco the hosts
07:12and the reigning champions
07:14by one goal to nil
07:16Dawit Kassau
07:18with a fine finish
07:28so Tari
07:30from fullback
07:33certainly going off
07:39Ethiopia though
07:40with the most important thing that matters
07:42they lead by a goal to nil
07:45looking for
07:47better
07:49particularly
07:50in the attacking sense
07:57this little ball tried to
07:59slide it through the captain
08:01broken the lines
08:06and Moustache fires a goal
08:10that's how you respond to adversity
08:18the host is struck back
08:22and Moustache
08:25prays
08:27as he finds the killer touch
08:33Hamid Amin Moustache
08:35stepping into the limelight
08:37into
08:38the starting 11
08:42has paid dividends
08:43if taken time
08:45to come to the boil
08:49he was given far too much time
08:51to set himself
08:54and clinical when he struck with the left
08:59Moustache
09:00frustration certainly
09:02well Tadese
09:05not enough protection
09:06either for the goalkeeper
09:10and Morocco
09:11looking for the lead
09:13they haven't led
09:14the entirety of this tournament so far
09:16we're almost
09:19a match at 30
09:20a match at 60 minutes
09:23into the tournament
09:29Morocco have improved so much
09:32particularly since they leveled up
09:35good strength
09:36but was that the best decision
09:38they may have got a corner
09:41surely El Aoud
09:43could have looked for some support
09:45but he
09:46great strike here to just
09:49nudge
09:50Joro off the ball
10:15this is where the throw
10:17was about to happen
10:28honestly I'm trying to work out
10:30why on earth he's being pulled across
10:35this is crazy
10:37really
10:40well let's see
10:41maybe the referee
10:42see something we haven't
10:44what about it of you
10:46look at
10:47come on
10:51on the books at Valencia
10:56now seeing Ethiopia driving forward
10:58what a run this is
11:01fantastic block though
11:03divided by
11:12he's doing this all
11:14on his own
11:18couldn't quite
11:20get his shot away
11:23Josefa
11:25Shafiome
11:26El Mesh
11:28reduced
11:29truly inspiring
11:33and they're looking for something special in the end
11:35what a ball that is
11:36what a ball that is whipped in
11:38where the turn from
11:40taker to maker
11:43ball whipped in by Gerdahl
11:47to Walde
11:50just couldn't get over the ball

12:23headed in
12:24Morocco has struck
12:26in injury time
12:30just when this looked like going to a draw
12:33it's the substitute
12:36it's the substitute
12:37Imran Talai
12:40who stepped up to the plate
12:45no wonder
12:46it's an intake of breath
12:50the pressure
12:51is at its highest
12:54he's seen his side
12:55bailing out
12:57what a wicked delivery
12:59this is
13:01Rishad
13:03clipping in
13:07Mohamed Abid
13:08Zimbi
13:09of Anderlecht
