Morocco’s Young Lions Roar for Glory in U20 World Cup Final Showdown

The Moroccan U20 team is one match away from writing a new page in its history. After its historic qualification against France on penalties (1-1, 5-4 p.s.o.), it will face Argentina in the U20 World Cup final in Chile on Sunday night. Mohamed Ouahbi measures the immense task that the Atlas Lions will have to accomplish. Argentina "has many assets, particularly tactical, in addition to its dynamism in midfield," he stressed during the press conference preceding the U20 World Cup final. He adds: the Argentines "aspire to win the title, and we are doing the same to achieve it."

The Moroccan team will strive to "create difficulties for its opponents" by using the style of play that the players master, Ouahbi promised, explaining that the work after the semi-final focused on physical recovery, in addition to the development of tactical aspects. The coach of the Atlas Lions continues: "Finals have their own peculiarities and are often decided on details."

The U20 World Cup final will be played this Sunday on the pitch of the Estadio Nacional Julio Martínez Prádanos in Santiago starting at midnight Moroccan time (1am in France and Belgium). This match can be followed on the Arryadia TNT, beIN Sports and FIFA+ channels.
