Morocco's national football team, the Atlas Lions, completed their final day of preparation on Thursday, June 18, 2026, ahead of their Group H match against Scotland at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The match is scheduled for Friday, June 19, 2026, at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts.
The training session was observed by Fouzi Lekjaa, president of the Royal Moroccan Football Federation, who has been closely monitoring the team's progress. Morocco is competing in Group H alongside Scotland, South Korea, and Portugal.
Morocco's squad includes key players such as Achraf Hakimi, Noussair Mazraoui, and Sofyan Amrabat, who were part of the historic 2022 World Cup run where they reached the semifinals. The team aims to build on that success in the 2026 tournament.
Scotland, led by coach Steve Clarke, will be looking to secure their first win of the tournament after a challenging start. The match is expected to be competitive, with both teams seeking crucial points to advance to the knockout stage.
