Colaboradores
Madagascar and Comoros are set to clash in the COSAFA Cup's third-place match at the Free State Stadium in Bloemfontein. This follows Madagascar's journey through Group C, where they topped the group after a 1-0 victory against Tanzania and a 1-1 draw with Eswatini.
However, Madagascar's aspirations of reaching the COSAFA Cup final were dashed by Angola, the defending champions, who defeated them 4-1. Angola quickly established dominance, with Depu scoring early from a penalty. Despite Mika Razafimahatana's late consolation goal, Madagascar couldn't overcome Angola's strong performance.
Comoros, on the other hand, will be playing their second consecutive third-place match in the COSAFA Cup. They are determined to avoid another defeat after losing to Mozambique on penalties last year. The team aims to secure a medal this time around.
Recent encounters between Madagascar and Comoros suggest a closely contested match. In their three previous meetings, each team has secured a win, along with a 1-1 draw last September. This history points to an evenly matched game with both sides eager to claim victory.
