Egypte en Marokko zijn binnen \u00e9\u00e9n stap gekomen van het herhalen van een prestatie die al 21 jaar ontbreekt, nadat beide landen hun plaatsen in de halve finales van de lopende Afrikaanse competitie hebben geboekt.<\/p>\n

Egypte verzekerde zich van kwalificatie met een zwaar bevochten overwinning, waarmee ze hun sterke reeks voortzetten en de hoop levend hielden om de finale te bereiken. Marokko volgde met een even beslissende uitslag om hun plek onder de laatste vier te bevestigen.<\/p>\n

De twee landen jagen nu op een mijlpaal die voor het laatst gebeurde in 2005, toen Egypte en Marokko beide aanwezig waren in de halve finales van hetzelfde Afrikaanse toernooi. Dat blijft de laatste keer dat het duo samen deze fase bereikte, waardoor de huidige campagne een kans biedt om een lange wachttijd te be\u00ebindigen.<\/p>\n

Nu de halve finales zijn vastgesteld, zijn Egypte en Marokko elk nog maar \u00e9\u00e9n overwinning verwijderd van het opnieuw maken van geschiedenis door de finale te bereiken en een vertrouwde Noord-Afrikaanse aanwezigheid aan de top van de competitie te herstellen.<\/p>\n

De laatste resultaten hebben beide teams in positie gebracht om dat verhaal van 2005 nieuw leven in te blazen, waarbij de aandacht nu uitgaat naar de vraag of ze de klus in de volgende ronde kunnen klaren.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
