If the fact that Gabon qualified for the knock-out phase was
one thing, then the fact that they have gone onto win their group and will
almost certainly avoid Ghana is another. Gabon faced Tunisia in the battle for
the top spot with only one goal separating the sides. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang
scored his second goal of the tournament to see Gabon finish ahead of their
North African counterparts with three wins out of three.
Morocco faced Niger with the Moroccans looking not to follow
in Senegal’s footsteps. Again only one goal separated the teams in the battle
for third. It came from Montpellier’s 21-year-old Younes Belhanda to see Morocco
finish above Niger. Table:
Gabon 9
Tunisia 6
Morocco 3
Niger 0
