TEAM OVERVIEW
Fresh off their historic 2022 semifinal run, Morocco hopes to arrive in 2026 not only as Africa’s top-ranked team but in perfect World Cup form. The Atlas Lions have evolved from defensive underdogs into a tactically sophisticated powerhouse that combines legendary resilience with explosive attacking flair, making them perhaps the continent's most compelling title contenders.
Counterpunch Heavyweights
Morocco has mastered tactical chameleon football, frustrating possession-heavy teams with their compact defensive web, then exploding into devastating counter-attacks led by world beater Achraf Hakimi. Having perhaps the planet’s best right-back helps, but an evolved system implemented under Walid Regragui allows the entire team to seamlessly shift from defensive discipline to attacking dominance, creating a perfect storm of unpredictability that makes every match a potential highlight reel.
A Culture Like No Other
During their historic 2022 World Cup semifinal run, Morocco fans introduced global audiences to a supporter culture that defies easy categorization, neither purely Arab nor African but authentically Moroccan. The integration of Tifinagh script, ancient Amazigh symbols, and indigenous languages is found nowhere else in football. Their signature adaptation of the Viking thunderclap, featuring “Sir!” (“Go!”) in place of “Huh!”, has been described as both foreign and familiar at once. Oh, and they like to bring their moms onto the field to celebrate victories.
Hakimi a Human Highlight Reels
Achraf Hakimi, nominated for the 2025 Ballon d'Or after a Champions League-winning season with PSG, combines record-breaking speed with devastating attacking output. The Spanish-born wingback’s story of choosing heritage over birthplace has galvanized the nation’s fanbase, while his ability to change games with a single explosive run makes him Morocco's most dangerous weapon and one of the tournament's must-watch players.
A Hero Returns Home
Montreal-born goalkeeper Yassine "Bono" Bounou returns to North America as the smiling hero who saved Morocco's penalty shootout against Spain, bringing a direct local connection to their global story. His journey from Moroccan street football to the World Cup stage embodies the Atlas Lions' theme of surpassing limits, while his famous grin during high-pressure moments perfectly captures Morocco's fearless mentality on football's biggest stage.
