Morocco Eyes Historic Win Streak in World Cup Qualifier Showdown

The Atlas Lions (7 wins in 7 games) will cross swords with Congo, the second-to-last team, on Tuesday. A match without stakes for Morocco, which has already validated its ticket for the 2026 World Cup, which will take place from June 11 to July 19, 2026 in the United States, Canada and Mexico. Walid Regragui’s protégés will seek to win the victory in order to set a new record by becoming the first team in history to achieve sixteen consecutive wins. A record hitherto held by Spain (2008-2009) and Germany. A victory against Congo will also allow them to strengthen their position in the FIFA ranking, or even to enter the world Top 10.

The task may be easy when we know that the Congolese have never beaten Morocco in 6 official matches: 4 losses and 2 draws. But teams considered "small" sometimes create surprises. The Atlas Lions must therefore show humility, audacity and determination, in order to beat their Congolese counterparts by a wide score, in order to make their supporters forget their hard-fought victory against Bahrain (1-0).

The match between Morocco and Congo can be followed from 8pm (GMT +1) on MBC 5, Arryadia TNT and Al Aoula TNT.
