Barcelona’s Ez Abde captains Morocco to U23 Africa Cup of Nations title

Barcelona winger Ez Abde captained Morocco to victory in the Under-23 Africa Cup of Nations on Saturday.

The forward led his side to a 2-1 win over Egypt, with Morocco scoring the winner in extra-time thanks to a cheeky free-kick from the skipper.

Abde shaped up to shoot before teeing up team-mate Oussama Targhalline instead. The midfielder let fly with an effort that went in, albeit with a bit of good fortune along the way.
