MOROCCO NEWS

Morocco didn't perform as expected in the first round match against Namibia. They won that game, but only after Keimuine scored an own goal in the last minutes of the match. Their best attacking players, Amrabat and Ziyech, will have to play much better in the upcoming game against Ivory Coast, if Morocco wants to win that game.
