Uruguay expresses interest in friendly clash with Morocco

Ignacio Alonso, the President of the Uruguayan Football Association, revealed the desire of the “Celeste” national team to face the Moroccan national team in a friendly match.

In a statement reported by “Carve deportiva,” Alonso explained that it is highly likely that their team, known as “Los Charrúas,” will face the Moroccan “Atlas Lions” in a European country, with France being the most probable location.

“In the coming hours, we will announce the national team that will face our Uruguay in a friendly.

Our next destination will either take us to China or lead to a friendly match against Morocco in Europe,” Ignacio stated.

The same source emphasized that the Uruguay-Morocco match is likely to take place during the upcoming international break.

It is worth noting that the Moroccan national team previously faced Uruguay in a friendly in March 2015 at the Adrar Stadium in Agadir.

The match concluded with a 1-0 victory for “La Celeste,” with Edinson Cavani scoring the decisive goal.
