Morocco-Tanzania: The opponent of the Lions is known, appointment on Sunday at 5pm

The final bracket is taking shape and the road to the title will go through the Tanzanian obstacle. The Taifa Stars qualified for the round of 16 at the last minute on Tuesday after a 1-1 draw against Tunisia at the Rabat Olympic Stadium. Finishing third in Group C with two points - following a defeat against Nigeria (2-1) and a draw against Uganda (1-1) - Tanzania qualified thanks to a better attack compared to Angola (3 goals scored against 2), despite an identical goal average.

An impressive Moroccan momentum

While the opponent had to fight until the last minute to qualify, Morocco approaches this round of 16 with full confidence. Walid Regragui’s men finished top of Group A with authority, totaling 7 points. After a winning start against the Comoros (2-0) and a harmless draw against Mali (1-1), the Lions delivered a real demonstration of strength on Monday evening by crushing Zambia (3-0).

Driven by a fiery Ayoub El Kaabi and a rediscovered collective, the national team has reassured its supporters and shown that it is gaining momentum at the best moment. This round of 16 match, scheduled for Sunday at 5pm in the Rabat stadium, will be an opportunity for Morocco to confirm its status as a favorite against a Tanzanian team that will have nothing to lose.
