This clash, scheduled to take place on Friday at the Stade d'honneur in Oujda, is part of the 5th round of qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup.

We are aware of the challenge ahead of us, but we will fight fiercely to seize our opportunities and perhaps create an upset. We will be a tough opponent for everyone, including Morocco. Honestly, I wouldn't have wished to find myself in such a situation. I have dedicated a large part of my life to defending Morocco's colors. Today, facing the Lions of the Atlas is a special feeling.

This statement given to Radios Mars confirms the intentions of the former iconic goalkeeper of the Lions of the Atlas, who will seek to create a sensation in Morocco itself.
