Saturday 26 September 2026 - 17:27

Morocco’s national soccer team traveled to South Africa on Saturday to prepare for its second match in the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Lesotho on Tuesday.

Morocco opened its qualifying campaign with a 2-0 victory over Gabon on Friday, giving the team a positive start ahead of its second Group [X] match.

The team’s coaching staff will use the days between the two games to prepare the players physically and tactically as Morocco looks to maintain its winning momentum and secure another three points away from home.

Morocco will face Lesotho on Tuesday at 1 p.m. local time in the second match of its qualifying campaign.

The team will be seeking another positive result in South Africa to strengthen its position in the race for qualification after its opening-round victory over Gabon.
