For the team’s line of defense, the coach called up Hanane Ait El Haj, Nouhaila Benzina, Siham Boukhami, Zineb Redouani, Yasmine Mrabet, Rkia Mazrouai, Nesryne El Chad, Ghizlane Chhiri, and Sabah Seghir.

The World Cup draw has placed Morocco in Group H, alongside Germany, South Korea, and Colombia.

“We know that we are the underdogs of this group but that does not prevent us from making it difficult for all these nations,” Pedros said, explaining that the team has been preparing for its upcoming matches with “an absolutely incredible state of mind and work.” 

Expressing his hope for the team to advance to the Round of 16, Pedros celebrated the growth that women’s football has witnessed in Morocco in recent years. “It is a promising start,” he said.

The national team secured their first-ever qualification for the Women’s World Cup after Morocco defeated Botswana during the quarter-finals of the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) in 2022.

The Atlas Lionesses produced a remarkable performance during the continental tournament, reaching the WAFCON final for the first time.

Morocco will be the only representative of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region at the global tournament.
