In SummaryComoros and Zambia played out the first 0-0 draw of the 2025 tournament, ending a streak of 13 consecutive matches where at least one goal was scored. The result leaves Group A wide open, forcing Zambia into a “must-win” situation against hosts Morocco, while Comoros needs a victory over Mali to keep their dreams alive. The smallest nation in the tournament, Comoros, proved they are no pushovers by holding the 2012 champions, Zambia, to a scoreless draw in Casablanca. Zambia struggled to create clear chances, extending a disappointing winless run in the competition that has lasted over a decade. Comoros must defeat Mali in Casablanca to have any chance of progressing, likely as one of the best third-placed teams.
