The Moroccans were not given a chance going into the Mundial, but they proved their quality 

Fans took to social media to shower praises on Morocco after their 2-1 victory over Canada that sealed their spot at the top of Group F at the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

Morocco were placed in a tough group that had Belgium and Croatia, and according to FIFA rankings, Morocco were the third-best team in the group.

However, the Atlas Lions exceeded all expectations. They started the competition on a good note, getting a draw against Croatia in their opening game. Morocco then went on to get a shock win against Belgium in their second fixture.

Then, they completed their good run with a 2-1 win over Canada. The result sealed Morocco’s place at the summit of group F.

Their achievement ensures that Morocco are the first team to top a FIFA World Cup group since the Super Eagles did it at the 1998 World Cup.

Following the result, Nigerian fans took to social media to praise the Atlas Lions for their achievements.

 

See as Hakim Ziyech carry Morocco for head for this Qatar FIFA World Cup 2022. A baller and more. Graham Potter of Chelsea FC should start this dude every match when he returns. #Chelsea #UpBlues #Qatar2022

    Congratulations to Morocco. By the way, Nigeria topped their group in 2 consecutive world cups – 1994 and 1998. USA 94 world cup had Argentina with the awesome legend Diego Armando Maradona.
