Morocco advanced to the final after beating Nigeria on penalties.
  The Moroccan national team advanced to the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations final after defeating the Nigerian national team on penalties in the semifinal match at Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium, Rabat, Wednesday local time.

In this match, Morocco and Nigeria played to a goalless draw after 120 minutes, so the winner had to be determined by a penalty shootout, according to CAF records.

In the penalty shootout, Morocco won 4-2 after two Nigerian penalty takers, Samuel Chukwueze and Bruno Onyemaechi, were saved by goalkeeper Yassine Bounou.

Morocco will then compete in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations final against the Senegalese national team at the Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium, Rabat.

On the other hand, Nigeria will compete in the third-place match of the 2025 African Cup of Nations against the Egyptian National Team at the Mohammed V Stadium.
