Morocco's rugby squad lost to Namibia 22-39 on Saturday (13 November) in the African Cup of Nations final. Earlier this year, Morocco beat Namibia 27-7 in Morocco to win the Confederation of African Rugby's Top 10 competition. Namibia and Morocco traded wins and losses several times this year. In one of the losses to Namibia, Moroccan Rugby Federation Chairman Said Bouhajeb blamed poor refereeing for the expulsion of two of his players in the last ten minutes of the game.
