Madagascar and Guinea-Bissau goalless at half-time in 2027 AFCON qualifier

Madagascar and Guinea-Bissau were level at 0-0 at half-time in their 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match at the Stade d’Honneur de Meknes.

The third-round Group L encounter has produced a tightly contested opening 45 minutes, with neither side able to break through.

Both teams have concentrated on a tactical battle in midfield, but have struggled to create clear openings against well-organised defences.

The two goalkeepers have faced little serious danger in a competitive first half, as the match remained scoreless at the interval.

The result currently favours Guinea-Bissau, who lead Group L with six points. Madagascar, meanwhile, are still seeking their first victory in the qualifying campaign.

The second half will decide whether either side can finally find the breakthrough and take control of the contest.
