Morocco began their AFCON 2025 campaign on a strong note, defeating Comoros 2–0 in the opening match at the Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium in Rabat.
After a cagey first half, the hosts broke the deadlock through Brahim Diaz before Ayoub El Kaabi sealed the victory with a composed finish.
The win extends Morocco’s remarkable world-record streak to **19 consecutive victories**, reinforcing their status as early tournament favourites. Despite spirited resistance from Comoros, the Atlas Lions dominated possession and dictated the pace from start to finish.
The second-half goals ensured a comfortable opening-day triumph and set the tone for Group A as the North Africans aim to convert home advantage into a title challenge.
