Morocco lost 1-0 to Kenya on Sunday in the group stage of the African Nations Championship (CHAN) at the Moi International Sports Center in Kenya.
Despite playing the entire second half with 10 players, Kenya scored in the 42nd minute. Eric Omondi set up Timothy Muchiri, whose shot was blocked. The rebound fell to Daniel Ogam, who fired into the right corner.
Kenya’s momentum was cut short just before halftime when defender Erambo was shown a straight red card after a VAR review for a dangerous challenge.
Morocco had several chances to equalize. In the first half, Maouloua hit the post after a deflection, and in the second half, substitute Youssef Mehri sent a shot wide. Goalkeeper Odhiambo made multiple saves to keep Kenya in front.
Kenya’s win put the team at the top of Group A and closer to the knockout stage, while Morocco, which had never lost to Kenya before, must win its next game to stay in contention.
The Atlas Lions will face Zambia in the fourth group stage match on Thursday.
