Unbeaten in 34 matches - why Morocco are World Cup contenders
Morocco beat Canada 3-0 in their round of 16 meeting in Houston. Morocco won despite having just five efforts on goal, which is the fewest by a team who won a World Cup knockout match on record. The first half was the first in World Cup history with more yellow cards than shots. Morocco is unbeaten in their last 34 matches across all competitions.
This record includes the 2026 Africa Cup of Nations final against Senegal, a win rewarded retroactively to Morocco and being challenged in court. The Moroccan national team has not lost a match since a 1-0 loss to Kenya in August 2025 in the African Nations Championship. Canada manager Jesse Marsch said afterwards: "They were bending a little bit but they didn't break."
