Heading into the FIFA World Cup 2026 tournament, Moroccan fans had high hopes that the Atlas Lions could recreate or even best their magical, historic run to the semi-finals in 2022. Under recently appointed manager Mohamed Ouahbi, who took over the reins just months before the tournament, the team has delivered on that immense promise.
The Atlas Lions kicked off their campaign with a gritty 1-1 draw against five-time world champions Brazil, before securing a rapid-fire 1-0 win over Scotland and closing the group with a commanding 4-2 victory over Haiti. Finishing second in Group C only on goal difference behind Brazil, Morocco booked a fierce Round of 32 clash with the Netherlands. In a night filled with absolute drama, Morocco fought back with a 91st-minute equalizer from Issa Diop to draw 1-1 before winning a breathtaking penalty shootout 3-2.
Morocco captured the world's heart by reaching the final four in 2022, but can they make history and reach the World Cup Final on July 19? Let’s look at the path that awaits Mohamed Ouahbi's men from here on out.
