CHAN 2024: Morocco has taken the lead in Group A with three points after the first day of the 2024 African Nations Championship (CHAN), according to statistics from the Confederation of African Football (CAF).

Morocco’s Atlas Lions A’ have earned this position thanks to their two goals on Sunday against Angola’s Palancas Negras (0 points, -2), who are ranked 5^th and last in the group after conceding two goals.  Morocco’s Atlas Lions A’ are followed by Kenya’s Harambees Stars, who have secured a narrow 1-0 victory over the Leopards A’ of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).  Thus defeated, the Congolese (0 points, -1) have been forced to settle for 4^th place in Group A, behind Zambia’s Chipolo-Polo, who have yet to play a single match due to being in a group of five competitors and will take to the field for their first match on Thursday against DRC.
