Madagascar reignited their World Cup dream on Monday evening with a spirited 3-1 comeback victory over Chad in Casablanca, pulling level on points with Ghana at the top of Group I.

The night didn’t begin in their favor as Yves Allarabaye, assisted by Franck Tchaouna, shocked the hosts with a 25th-minute opener for Chad. The Barea pushed hard for an equalizer before halftime but were frustrated, going into the break a goal down.

Determined to change the script, Madagascar stormed into the second half with renewed energy. Warren Caddy’s strike brought them back into the contest before Rayan Raveloson and Hakim Abdallah sealed a commanding turnaround, sending their fans into jubilation.

The result now sees Madagascar sitting second in Group I with 16 points—level with leaders Ghana. With this statement win, the Barea have turned the heat up on the Black Stars, who must overcome Mali later tonight to maintain their grip on the group.
