2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations hosts Morocco have one foot in the knockout stages after repeating their opening day victory.

But they left it late against Algeria, as Sanaâ Mssoudy made the breakthrough with the only goal of the game six minutes from the end of the 90.

Senegal joined Algeria on three points in Group A after also winning by a solitary goal against Kenya, with Seynabou Mbengue on target in the 35th minute.

Wednesday, 31 July will see South Africa take on Group B leaders Ivory Coast in the 6pm (BST) kick-off, before Burkina Faso face Tanzania three hours later.
