Benin earned their first-ever Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) win as Yohan Roche's deflected first-half strike sealed their first points of the 2025 tournament in Rabat.
Defender Roche exchanged a one-two with returning targetman Steve Mounie, who missed Benin's opening defeat to DR Congo, before sending a looped finish from inside the box over goalkeeper Goitseone Phoko.
Roche's goal made history for his country with their first victory inside normal time in their 16th Afcon match spread over five editions.
