Madagascar on Sunday in Maputo beat Mozambique 2-0 (qualifying 4-2 on aggregate) in the second leg of their African Nations Championship qualifier at the Estádio Nacional do Zimpeto, to progress to the next stage, APA can report.
The first leg between the two nations last weekend ended 2-2 in Antananarivo, which handed Mozambique two vital away goals.
Salomao Mandlane and Manuel Fernandes found the back of the net for Mozambique in that tie, while Njiva Rakotoarimalala scored a brace for Madagascar.
The second leg on Sunday saw Mozambique trying to defend the draw and progress on the away goals rule, but it was not to be.
While the first half ended goalless, two second half strikes from Madagascar saw them run out 2-0 winners on the day and 4-2 on aggregate over the two legs.
Madagascar will now face either Mauritius or Angola in the final phase of qualification to reach CHAN 2018 in Kenya.
Mauritius and Angola are in action later on Sunday in Luanda, with Angola enjoying a 1-0 advantage from the first leg.
