Match Info:
AFRICA CUP OF NATIONS – GROUP C
Match K.O. @ 18:00 Cairo Local Time
Venue: Stade d’Oyem
Herve Renard and Claude LeRoy loom large over the key Africa Cup of Nations Group C match between Morocco and Togo in Oyem on Friday.
Renard, a Nations Cup winner with Zambia in 2012 and the Ivory Coast in 2015, was hired by Morocco last year and given a mandate to reach the semi-finals.
Right now, a last-four place must seem a long way off for Renard who saw his side fail to turn possession into goals three days ago as they lost 1-0 to DR Congo.
That loss left the Moroccans pointless and bottom of a table headed by DR Congo with three points followed by title-holders the Ivory Coast and Togo with one apiece.
Veteran Togo coach Le Roy is at the Nations Cup for a record ninth time and although he can boast of just one title – with Cameroon in 1988 – he has failed to reach the knockout phase only once.
Togo are the latest beneficiaries of his wisdom gathered over three decades in Africa and they were never overawed when forcing a 0-0 draw with an Ivorian side that appeared much stronger on paper.
