The Morocco national football team wins against Scotland with a goal from Ismail Saibari in the FIFA World Cup 2026. Mohamed Ouhabi, the coach of the Morocco national football team, criticizes his players for not increasing the goal difference during the win against Scotland. The Morocco national football team achieved its first win in the 2026 World Cup by defeating Scotland with a goal from Ismail Saibari, putting the Atlas Lions in a strong position to advance to the next round. Mohamed Ouhabi said in a statement after the game: We knew we were facing a tough opponent, and we wanted to be decisive in front of the goal to win the game with a comfortable margin. The coach of Morocco acknowledged that there was a sign of tension in the performance, but ultimately, he believes that the opponent had strong and solid defenses that succeeded in closing the spaces in front of his players. Ouhabi emphasized that the Morocco players made a great effort to prevent the Scottish team from approaching their dangerous areas through long balls in the end of the game. He added: We wanted to score the second and third goals to end the game in a better way, but this is the World Cup and that's football. It's worth mentioning that Morocco now has 4 points in Group 3 of the 2026 World Cup and will play against Haiti in the third round next Thursday.
