The Mourabitounes made up for their narrow loss to Cameroon in the opener, by dismissing Mozambique 2-0 on Wednesday in Nouakchott.
Two goals from Oumar M'Bareck (19th) and Silly Sankharé (29th) concluded things for the host who now are logged on 3 points with Uganda who earlier lost to Cameroon 1-0.
This scenario offers a breathtaking third day for the second qualifying ticket to the next round. However, it is over for Mozambique who suffered a second defeat in the competition. The final group A games come up on Sunday and it will be a make or mare scenario for Mauritania when they take on Uganda. Both sides need nothing short of victory to join Cameroon in the quarter finals as group runner up.
