Morocco’s U-23 team seems to be in excellent form ahead of their crucial qualifiers for the Under-23 Africa Cup of Nations. A 5-0 victory over Burkina Faso is a statement performance. It shows that Morocco is not only looking to qualify but to do so with confidence and dominance.
Players like Reda Hajhouj, Saad Ait Khoursa, and Achraf Bencharqi seem to be finding their rhythm, and this kind of depth in attack will make them very difficult to beat in the final round. The 1-0 win in the first leg in Ouagadougou already gave them a solid base to build on.
The third and final qualifying round will be a real test, but Morocco looks well-prepared. Their experience in previous youth tournaments and their strong squad should give them an edge when they face their final opposition.
