Africa Women's Championship Morocco wins bronze
The Algerian women's national team won the bronze medal at the 2026 Africa Cup of Nations, defeating Morocco in a penalty shootout (3-2) after a 1-1 draw in the third-place playoff. Coauthor Azraf scored the opening goal for Morocco in the 37th minute, while Lina Bousaha equalized for Algeria in the 83rd minute. Algeria secured the victory in the shootout thanks to the brilliance of goalkeeper Ngazi Kloay, who saved a Moroccan attempt.
