‘Why not an African World Cup champion?’ Regragui aspires to open the way with Morocco
Morocco is in pole position to reach the round of 16 of the 2022 World Cup when they face Canada in a decisive match in Group F this afternoon.
The Atlas Lions earned their first World Cup victory since 1998 when they last defeated Belgium and another victory today would secure them a place in the knockout rounds.
Walid Regragui’s side have not made it past the group stage since 1986 and they will be very successful if they can get over the line today.
Canada is already out, coming off two losses in two despite many exciting moments, but it won’t make things easy for Morocco.
