Match Preview
Morocco and Brazil will meet in a friendly international on Saturday 25 March 2023 at 6:00 pm ET at the Grand Stade de Tanger, Tanger. This will be the first meeting between the two teams since 1999, when Brazil won 3-0 in the Confederations Cup.
Morocco just made history by reaching the semifinals of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, where they lost to France and then finished fourth after being beaten by Croatia. Walid Reragui’s team showed an impressive performance throughout the tournament, beating strong teams such as Belgium, Spain and Portugal.
Brazil, on the other hand, suffered a major disappointment by being knocked out in the quarter-finals of the 2022 World Cup by Croatia. This is their fourth failure at the same stage in the last five editions. After that, coach Tite resigned and was replaced by Ramon Menezes as interim coach.
This match will be an opportunity for both teams to prepare for the next competitions, namely Copa America for Brazil and African Cup of Nations Qualification for Morocco. The two teams also want to maintain their reputation as the strongest teams in the world and show their quality to the fans.
In order to face the strongest team in the FIFA rankings, Morocco has just announced a list of 30 players called up to face Brazil. From the list, there are seven new names who have never defended the national team before, namely Chadi Riad, Ayoub Amraroui, Benjamin Bouchouari, Yassine Kechta, Ibrahim Salah, Abdel Aqae and Mehdi Benabid.
Coach Walid Reragui still relies on a number of reliable players who have performed brilliantly at the 2022 World Cup, such as Hakim Ziyech, Achraf Hakimi, Youssef En-Nesyri and Sofyan Amrabat. However, it also gives young players who have the potential to add depth to the squad.
On the other hand, Brazil will have their first match since the departure of coach Tite. Menezes called up 23 players to face Morocco, with several changes from the 2022 World Cup squad. Three Brazilian stars, namely Neymar, Richarlison and Marquinhos were absent due to injury. They were replaced by Anthony, Rodrigo, and Ibanez.
Menezes also gave the opportunity to several young players who play in the Brazilian domestic league, such as Andrey Sampaio, Joao Gomes, Raphael Veiga, and Vitor Roque who can accompany stars such as Gabriel Jesus (Arsenal), Vinicius Junior (Real Madrid), and Firmino ( Liverpool). Manchester United star Casemiro will captain the team in place of Neymar.
According to the official Twitter account @ramonmenezes, Menezes is ready to start a new era. “We want to start a new era with a positive spirit and a winning mentality. We know Morocco are a strong and experienced team, but we also have great quality and talent. We want to show the world that we can still compete at the highest level,” said Menezes in his pre-match press conference.”
