After a highly intense first 45 minutes at Rabat’s Moulay El Hassan Stadium, Morocco and Algeria are tied at halftime (0-0).
In this decisive Maghreb derby for control of Group A, the two teams played to a draw after each had won their opening match.
On the field, a tactical battle raged in midfield. The Atlas Lionesses sought to dictate the pace by launching repeated attacks down the wings, but Algeria’s defensive block remained perfectly organized and disciplined, thwarting the few clear-cut chances on both sides.
Everything is still up for grabs in this tightly contested second half, where efficiency in front of goal will be the key to breaking the deadlock and securing an early spot in the quarterfinals.
