Morocco
Tras su histórica carrera hasta semifinales en 2022, los Leones del Atlas han consolidado su estatus como la principal nación futbolística de África.
Squad Overview
The core of the 2022 semi-final team returns, now with added confidence and tournament experience. Achraf Hakimi is the superstar right-back, while the midfield provides steel and tactical intelligence. The defense — brilliantly organized in Qatar — remains the foundation. Morocco have added more attacking variety to complement their counter-attacking strength.
Tactical Style
Disciplined 4-3-3 that transforms into a compact 4-1-4-1 out of possession. Morocco's identity is built on defensive organization, physical intensity, and lightning-fast transitions through their world-class wing-backs. They're happy to cede possession and strike on the counter.
Road to 2026
Dominated their CAF qualifying group, carrying the confidence from their historic 2022 World Cup campaign into a flawless qualification.
World Cup History
Morocco's 2022 World Cup campaign captured the imagination of the football world. They became the first African and Arab nation to reach a World Cup semi-final, defeating Belgium, Spain, and Portugal along the way. Their quarter-final victory over Portugal with 10 men was a triumph of spirit and tactical discipline.
