Teboho Mokoena: Agent Breaks Silence on African Giants’ Interest in Mamelodi Sundowns Star
The agent of Mamelodi Sundowns midfielder Teboho Mokoena has opened up about the transfer speculation linking the player to a move to North Africa.
However, Mali is a side that refuses to be beaten. Interestingly, they reached this stage without a single win in open play, having drawn all three group matches and edging out Tunisia on penalties in the Round of 16.
Keep an eye on Lassine Sinayoko, with three goals already; he is one strike away from matching the legendary Frédéric Kanouté’s single-tournament record for Mali.
AFCON 2025 Quarterfinal: Cameroon vs. Morocco
In what many are calling the ‘Final before the Final,’ the host nation Morocco faces five-time champions Cameroon at the Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium, Rabat, scheduled to begin at 7:00 PM GMT (22:00 EAT).
The Atlas Lions have lived up to their favourite status, dominating possession and pass accuracy stats across the tournament.
Brahim Diaz has been the standout star, already netting four goals, a new Moroccan record for a single AFCON edition.
