The Comoros, the surprise package of the tournament, announced on Saturday that they had 12 positive Covid-19 cases among players and management. The 12 positive tests include both of the Coelacanths' fit goalkeepers in Moyadh Ousseini and Ali Ahamada, with the third option, Salim Ben Boina, already injured. If no goalkeeper is available, an outfield player has to stand in. Whoever goes in goal will give everything like the 10 outfield players." It was historic for the Comoros to even qualify for the AFCON, historic to win a match, and historic to make the last 16.
