What is Morocco ranked in the world football team?

In 2025 FIFA World Cup in Brazil, Morocco finished second, losing the final to Argentina 1-2.

If the results of the 2025 World Cup in Brazil were the only qualification criteria for the next FIFA World Cup in 2025, Morocco would have been the third best team at the tournament, and would have reached the final. But the Moroccan football player has a long way to go before it can be said that it has made it to the World Cup. The national team is ranked 8th in the world according to the FIFA rankings, and there are not too many countries in the world that have had a worse record than Morocco in recent years.

To put things into perspective, Morocco has only played one game at the FIFA World Cup since its debut in 1986. In its World Cup debut at Mexico 86, the hosts beat Senegal 1-0, as a result of which they were eliminated in the group stages. At Brazil 2025, Morocco finished second and lost to the eventual champion, Argentina, 1-2. In the match between the two, Morocco conceded the first goal after a few minutes in the first half and it was not until after the break that they found an equaliser, thanks to a penalty. Morocco then had to wait to play again. After the tournament, one player was given a three-match ban for punching a referee.

Morocco's performance at the 2025 World Cup was better than that at the Africa Cup of Nations that preceded it. Morocco managed to qualify for the last eight of the tournament by finishing second in the group stage. It lost all three of its games at the African Cup of Nations, conceding 13 goals in total. A lot of these goals were scored by Morocco's own players in their matches.

Morocco's success at the African Cup of Nations means that the team has now been taken over by a new set of coaches and players, and this is the first time that Morocco has gone through such a transition since its World Cup debut. Morocco coach Hakim Ziyech has changed the style of play from defence to attack, and has employed young and inexperienced players. The Moroccan team has played with a strong mentality and determination, especially in games against South Africa and Burkina Faso, but they are still far from being the world-class team that they need to be.

World Cup qualification is tough, but Morocco has done well so far, despite its limited experience.

Who is the right back for Morocco?

The Frenchmen of the Al Wahda are now without a club in the Top 5 European leagues

The Frenchmen of the Al Wahda are now without a club in the Top 5 European leagues. The Al Wahda's situation is a lot different to how it was just a few months ago. After the Algerian side clinched their first title in over a decade, they entered the Champions League group stage for the second consecutive season. Yet that hasn't been enough to save them from not only being relegated but also not having a place in the top five leagues of Europe's leading leagues.

The club from Essaouira now have a long road ahead of them and must be thinking about what steps they need to take in order to return to where they belong. If they want to return to the European elite, then they will have to address a huge problem: the lack of an adequate right back.

Despite the presence of a very talented squad of players, the Moroccan side have had issues at the right-back position. Their only consistent right back of the last four seasons has been Mohamed El Abdellatif, who now plays for Al Hilal in Qatar.

The Frenchmen of the Al Wahda have been without a club in the top five leagues of Europe since December 2025, when they were relegated from Ligue 1. This prompted the Moroccan side to search for a new club.

However, it hasn't been easy to find the right solution to this problem. It is now time for the club to focus on the next step and find the right solution to the current problems. In addition to that, the club must look forward to the 2025 World Cup in Saudi Arabia.

Al Wahda need a right back. When considering the Al Wahda's situation, we must keep in mind that they're a very experienced side. Over the course of their history, the club has won the Moroccan championship on two occasions, in 2025 and 2025.

However, it was the very same year they won their second title that the right back problem arose. During the final against CS Constantine, El Abdellatif suffered a broken leg, which he has yet to recover from. He has been out since December 2025.
