2026 World Cup: Morocco expected to confirm against Scotland

Description

The Atlas Lions of Morocco made a notable debut in Group C of the 2026 World Cup. Facing Brazil, five-time world champions, at the MetLife Stadium in New York/New Jersey, Mohamed Ouahbi’s men held the Seleção to a draw (1-1). This honorable and promising result for a team that was a surprise semifinalist in 2022 leaves the Moroccans with a valuable point.
