The Moroccan U17 national team is set for its major debut at the FIFA U17 World Cup in Qatar. Nabil Baha’s young squad begins the tournament this Monday with a Group B opener against Japan at 14:30 (French time) on the Aspire Academy Pitch.
On Sunday, November 2, the Atlas Cubs held their last training session on the auxiliary field, focusing on concentration and tactical fine-tuning. Head coach Nabil Baha, together with his technical team, used this final practice to adjust key details in preparation for the Japanese side.
“The Japanese team is known for its speed and tactical discipline,” said sources close to the Moroccan staff.
After several weeks of preparation, Morocco’s U17 team enters the competition with strong confidence and ambition. As current African champions, the Cubs aim to emulate their U20 counterparts, who were crowned world champions only a month ago.
The Moroccan U17 squad, driven by discipline and ambition, aims to begin their World Cup journey in Qatar with a strong performance against Japan.
