Morocco March Towards the Last 16: Composed Draws and Gritty Wins Define Atlas Lions Campaign
Morocco continue their impressive World Cup 2026 campaign with 4 points — a heroic draw against Brazil and a tight win over Scotland have the Atlas Lions on course for the Round of 16.
Morocco are doing exactly what Morocco do best — defending brilliantly, creating chances at key moments and grinding out results. With four points from two games, the Atlas Lions are firmly on course for the knockout stages.
The Brazil Draw
En-Nesyri opened the scoring in a tight, tactically absorbing match against Brazil. Vinicius Jr equalised, but Morocco held on for a thoroughly deserved 1-1 draw that announced them as serious contenders.
The Scotland Win
A single second-half goal was enough to see off Scotland 1-0, taking Morocco to four points and cementing their place in second spot in Group C.
Haiti: The Final Group Game
Morocco face Haiti on June 24 — a winnable game that would rubber-stamp their Round of 16 qualification and potentially deliver top spot in the group if Brazil slip against Scotland.
