World Cup Qualifier: Morocco vs. DRC Dates Shifted for Crucial Play-off Matches

According to a note from FIFA sent to the Royal Moroccan Football Federation, the first leg of the 2022 World Cup play-offs, which pits Morocco against the Democratic Republic of Congo, will be held on March 25 at 4 pm at the Martyrs’ Stadium in Kinshasa.

As for the return leg, nothing changes except the date. It will therefore be on March 29 at 8:30 pm at the Mohammed V Complex in Casablanca. It was following a draw held on January 22 in Douala, Cameroon, that Morocco inherited the DRC. The winner of the play-offs will have their ticket for the World Cup.

The other African play-off matches are also promising. There will be Egypt-Senegal, an opportunity for the Egyptians to take revenge on the Senegalese who beat them in the final of the CAN held in Cameroon.
