Morocco’s under-20 national team will play Argentina in the FIFA U20 World Cup final on Sunday night at midnight (local time) at Santiago’s Estadio Nacional Julio Martínez Prádanos, aiming for their first-ever title.
The Atlas Cubs, led by coach Mohamed Ouahbi, enter the match after a grueling semifinal win over France that went to extra time, leaving key players fatigued. Goalkeeper Yanis Benchaouch remains sidelined, while forward Yassine Gessime’s participation is uncertain.
Argentina arrive as favorites with a balanced, combative squad, but Morocco’s pace and technical sharpness could prove decisive. “Finals are won on details,” Ouahbi said, stressing his team’s determination to make history.
Royal Air Maroc has arranged two special flights to bring fans from Morocco, joining strong support from the Moroccan diaspora and local Chilean fans.
The final will be broadcast live on Arryadia, BeIN Sports, FIFA+, and La Chaîne L’Équipe.
