Sofyan Amrabat, a player for Manchester United, was “sent off twice” when Morocco lost shockingly to South Africa in the AFCON.

Morocco was one of the favorites going into the game because of their amazing run at the 2022 Qatar World Cup.

However, Evidence Makgopa of South Africa got a great first goal in the 57th minute of the game.

Achraf Hakimi of Morocco then had a penalty kick to tie the game, but he missed it horribly.

With a curling free kick in the 95th minute, Teboho Mokoena made sure that South Africa would win.

After being sent off for the second time, things got even worse for Amrabat, who used to play middle for Fiorentina.

This player was the last defender for Morocco and made a careless tackle. The referee quickly gave him a second yellow card and a red card.

But after a VAR check gave Amrabat and his team hope that they could get an equalizer, the second yellow card was changed to a straight red, which made the failing Old Trafford star very unhappy. 

With this win, South Africa will play Cape Verde in the quarterfinals. Cape Verde has been playing very well so far.

Mali beat Burkina Faso to move on to the quarterfinal stage in another game that night.

There was also drama in the Asian Cup, as Roberto Mancini wouldn’t watch the end of Saudi Arabia’s spot shootout against South Korea.

It turned out that the former Italian boss was right to leave when his team was knocked out of the tournament on penalties.
