The Moroccan national football team concluded its preparations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup with a goalless draw against Paraguay in an international friendly on Tuesday, March 25, 2026. The match, held at the Stade de la Meinau in Strasbourg, France, served as the Atlas Lions' final tune-up before the global tournament in North America.
Under the guidance of coach Mohamed Ouahbi, Morocco fielded a strong side but was unable to break down a resilient Paraguayan defense. The result follows a previous 1-0 victory over Ecuador in another friendly, as the team continues to build cohesion ahead of the World Cup.
Morocco, which made history by reaching the semi-finals in the 2022 World Cup, is placed in Group F for the 2026 edition. They will face Germany, the United States, and the winner of the AFC-CAF playoff in the first round, beginning in June 2026.
