The friendly football match between Morocco and El Salvador, originally scheduled for June 3, 2026, in the United States, has been canceled. The cancellation was confirmed by the president of the Salvadoran Football Federation (FESFUT), who cited logistical issues as the reason.
According to FESFUT, the decision was mutual and made due to difficulties in organizing the match within the required timeframe. Both federations have expressed regret over the cancellation but emphasized the need to prioritize other preparations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Morocco's national team, the Atlas Lions, are currently finalizing their pre-World Cup schedule. The cancellation of this friendly match may lead to the search for an alternative opponent to ensure adequate preparation before the tournament.
