Morocco's women's national football team, known as the Lionesses of the Atlas, will face Cape Verde in a friendly match on Tuesday, July 21, 2026, at Stade Père Jégo in Casablanca. The match is part of preparations for the 2026 Women's Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON), which Morocco is scheduled to host.
Head coach Jorge Vilda Rodriguez is expected to use the match to test tactics and evaluate players ahead of the continental tournament. The Spanish coach, who led Spain to a World Cup title in 2023, took charge of Morocco in 2024.
Morocco finished as runners-up in the 2022 WAFCON and aims to improve on that performance on home soil. Cape Verde, meanwhile, is using the friendly to build experience ahead of their own qualifying campaign.
