As World Cup Nears, Are Atlas Lions Ready?

The Moroccan national team is in a rebuilding phase and cannot be considered a favorite, but rather an interesting outsider. Their historic fourth-place finish at the 2022 World Cup and their U-20 World Cup title win in 2025 have solidified their status as a rising football power. Currently ranked 8th in the FIFA rankings, the Atlas Lions are expected to perform well in the tournament.
