Morocco goalkeeper, Munir El Mohamadi, has stressed the difficulty in facing Nigeria in the blockbuster semi-final clash at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations tournament.
The Atlas Lions takes on the Super Eagles of Nigeria at the Stade Prince Moulay Abdallah in a fierce encounter on Wednesday, with victory crucial to securing qualification to the finals of the tournament.
While Nigeria remain the only team to have secured victories in all five games at the tournament, the Atlas Lions has four wins and a draw.
“Mental preparation for the Nigeria match is extremely important to overcome this obstacle. Our goal is to win the title, and we are preparing physically and mentally for this important match, and we will try to make the Moroccan people happy.”
“I have played in the Africa Cup of Nations several times, and I always try to give advice to my teammates. I know that the Moroccan fans expect a lot from us.”
The winner of the match is scheduled to face either Senegal or Egypt in the final of the continental showpiece, being held in Morocco.
