Morocco’s U17 side snatched a dramatic late victory over the Black Starlets, scoring with the last kick of the game to secure a 2-1 win in the second of two international friendly matches in Rabat.The Black Starlets, who played with 10 men for the greater part of the second half, were ultimately undone by a late counter-attack from the hosts.Morocco took the lead in the 11th minute after capitalising on a poor clearance from the Black Starlets goalkeeper. Ghana responded and created several opportunities to restore parity, with Issah Alidu coming close on three occasions after finding himself one-on-one with the Moroccan goalkeeper before the break.Ten minutes into the second half, the Starlets were reduced to 10 men when captain Abdul Rafiu Issah was shown a red card for a strong tackle on a Moroccan attacker. Despite the numerical disadvantage, the Black Starlets continued to push forward in search of an equaliser.Their persistence paid off in the 75th minute when Yaw Acheampong produced a free-kick to bring Ghana level. Gavi Robinho came close to completing the comeback when his effort was blocked by a Moroccan defender and diverted for a corner. However, Morocco quickly turned defence into attack from the resulting corner, launching a counter-attack that ended with the hosts scoring with the final kick of the match.The result leaves the two-match series honours even, with Ghana having won the first encounter 2-0 before Morocco claimed the second game.The matches conclude the Black Starlets’ international preparations ahead of the WAFU Zone B U17 Championship, which also serves as the qualifying tournament for the 2027 U17 Africa Cup of Nations.
