The Atlas Lions roared their way through group E of the CAF qualifiers, finishing top
with a clean record, having won all their 8 matches. Semifinalists in Qatar, the team has
their eyes on the prize, their recent form earning them a spot among the contenders,
even as they prepare to host the 2030 tournament.
Under the tutelage of Mohamed Ouahbi, who recently tasted world glory having led the
U-20 national team to clinch the world cup trophy, the lions look to replicate their young
ones’ glory. The team boasts of a defensive solidity that conceded just 2 goals in the
qualifiers, and an offensive threat led them to scoring 22 goals in the journey.
