WAFCON 2026: Morocco, South Africa clash for semi-final spot, World Cup ticket

The TotalEnergies CAF Women’s Africa Cup of Nations Morocco 2026 semi-final will see Morocco and South Africa battle for a spot in the semi-finals and automatic qualification for the 2027 FIFA Women’s World Cup in Brazil. The quarter-final match, scheduled for 9pm local time (8pm GMT) at the Moulay El Hassan Stadium in Rabat, is a repeat of the 2022 WAFCON final when South Africa defeated Morocco 2-1.

The winner of Saturday's game will secure their place in the semi-finals and potentially an early ticket to the 2027 World Cup. Morocco, who have never reached the semi-finals before, are looking to make their third appearance in the competition, while South Africa aim for their third World Cup appearance following their participation in 2019 and 2023.
