Morocco took the lead just after three minutes of play as Saâna Mssoudy broke the deadlock.

However, Botswana quickly netted the equalizer thanks to Keitumetse Dithebe who restored the scoreline for them.

But the Atlas Lionesses were more determined in the second half with Yasmin Mrabet scoring the winner (59 minutes) to send them through to the next round and the World Cup next year for the first time in their history.
