Morocco's Strong Performance Ahead of the World Cup
As the countdown to the 2026 World Cup begins, national teams are entering the final stages of their preparation for the tournament that will take place across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Among the participating nations is Morocco, which includes two players from Real Betis in its squad: Abde and Amrabat. In a recent friendly match against Madagascar, Morocco showcased a dominant performance, securing a convincing 4-0 victory. Both Abde and Amrabat were included in the starting lineup, although neither played the full match. Abde was substituted at halftime for Soufiane Rahimi, while Amrabat continued until the 80th minute before being replaced by Brahim Díaz.
The first half concluded with a double goal from Ismael Saibari, establishing a solid lead for Morocco. In the second half, Soufiane Rahimi added to the score with a penalty, followed by Ayoub El Kaabi, who completed the tally. Looking ahead, Morocco is scheduled to face Norway in another friendly match this Sunday, which will take place in the United States.
