Towards the cancellation of the Morocco-Liberia match?

The 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match between Morocco and Liberia could be canceled due to the powerful earthquake that struck Morocco on Friday night into Saturday.

Will Morocco be able to host Liberia tonight at the Grand Stade d’Agadir? The powerful earthquake that hit the province of Al-Haouz on Friday night into Saturday could lead to the cancellation of the match. This violent 7-magnitude earthquake caused significant damage and panic in Marrakech and other cities. According to the provisional toll: 820 people were killed and 672 injured, including 205 in serious condition. This toll could still worsen as the search through the rubble continues.

With six points, Morocco is one of the countries qualified for the next Africa Cup of Nations, which will take place from January 13 to February 11, 2024 in Côte d’Ivoire. After reaching the semifinals of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, the goal of the Atlas Lions is to win the 2024 AFCON. A title they had won for the first time in 1976. As for Liberia (1 point), they have no chance of qualifying.
