Four years ago, when Morocco reached the semifinals of the World Cup for the first time, the celebration stretched far beyond the country\u2019s borders. The Atlas Lions, as the national team is known, were hailed as pan-Arab, pan-African, and post-colonial heroes. Caf\u00e9s around Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, were filled to capacity with fans watching the games and rooting for Morocco. Stadiums in Gaza City and Ramallah broadcast the Atlas Lions\u2019 matches on their oversized screens. In Beirut, cars were draped in banners of Moroccan red and green, while in Algiers horns honked in jubilation. Revellers in Baghdad and Muscat carried on similarly. In Nigeria, the President said Morocco had \u201cmade the entire continent proud.\u201d A majority of Morocco\u2019s squad is Muslim, prompting fans to gather for mass prayer sessions in Muslim-majority countries as far away as Indonesia. Al Jazeera declared that the team gave people from the Global South \u201cthe power to believe.\u201d Walid Regragui, Morocco\u2019s coach at the time, likened the groundswell of support to how moviegoers reacted to Rocky Balboa. \u201cI think now the world is with Morocco,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

When history is made, observers like to define it. Morocco was just the third team from outside of Europe or South America to reach a World Cup final four. The other two were South Korea, in 2002, the year it co-hosted the tournament with Japan, and the United States, at the inaugural event, in 1930. But when commentators described Morocco as either the first African or first Arab country to reach the World Cup semifinals, discourse inevitably followed. Both, of course, were true. \u201cThe international debate sometimes appeared too binary compared to the Moroccan social reality,\u201d Abderrahim Bourkia, a sociology professor at Morocco\u2019s Hassan I University, in Settat, told me. The team, for its part, seemed keen to represent as wide a constituency as it could. \u201cWe want to fly Africa\u2019s flag high just like Senegal, Ghana, Cameroon,\u201d Regragui, the coach, told reporters. Players celebrated victories with Palestinian flags, a gesture of solidarity across the Arab world. They also displayed the Amazigh flag, a bright symbol of the Moroccan Indigenous population, from which, according to estimates, upward of half of the country\u2019s people claim heritage. \u201cMorocco defies easy categorization,\u201d Safwan Masri, the Palestinian-Jordanian dean of Georgetown University in Qatar, and author of the forthcoming \u201cThey Told Us We Were Arab,\u201d said. \u201cIt\u2019s complicated, it\u2019s layered, and it came into full display in what I think is a healthy manner.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Before Morocco\u2019s success in 2022, the country had advanced from the World Cup\u2019s opening-group stage only once, in 1986; it was then immediately eliminated in the first knockout round. \u201cIn Morocco, we had a saying, to the pilot: \u2018Don\u2019t turn off the airplane, because we will go back as soon as we can,\u2019\u00a0\u201d Saad Moufakkir, a Moroccan soccer journalist, told me. \u201cWe didn\u2019t know that it was our moment.\u201d This year, the squad enters the tournament ranked seventh in FIFA<\/em>\u2019s official standings\u2014its highest-ever mark. Team Morocco\u2019s lineup features contributors from some of the world\u2019s powerhouse clubs: Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid, Manchester United. Its youth team won the most recent Under-20 World Cup last year. Introductions are over. \u201cWe are no longer the underdog,\u201d Moufakkir said. \u201cPeople say 2022 was a miracle, but now it\u2019s the beginning of a new football power. Expectations have changed completely.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Like many nations, Morocco\u2019s devotion to soccer is a vestige of its colonial past. The sport took hold in the first half of the twentieth century, when France and Spain controlled the country. After Morocco gained independence, in 1956, soccer stadiums were regularly decorated with iconography of its royal family, which dates back to the seventeenth century. More recently, Mohammed VI, the current King, opened a network of sprawling, modern soccer academies\u2014the primary complex, in Sal\u00e9, is named the Mohammed VI Football Academy\u2014to develop domestic talent from a young age. Upward of a hundred promising adolescent boys, scouted as young as six, are admitted each year to live and train at the facility full time, in a system that resembles top youth-development programs in Europe and South America.<\/p>\n

But the sport\u2019s local traditions are not afraid to challenge authority. \u201cFootball in Morocco is not only entertainment,\u201d Bourkia told me. \u201cIt is a space of identity, belonging and social expression.\u201d Political dissent can be harshly policed outside the stadium, but domestic clubs\u2019 most ardent fan groups, often called ultras, are brazenly outspoken in their cheering. Fans of Raja Casablanca, known as the Green Boys, belt a song titled, \u201cF\u2019Bladi Delmouni,\u201d or \u201cIn My Country, They Wronged Me.\u201d Ultras supporting the Rabat club Royal Army, ironically, recite chants that include the slogan, \u201cThe sons of bitches have become tyrants over us.\u201d IR Tangier\u2019s supporters cry in unison, \u201cThis life is not O.K. \/ It\u2019s the reason for migration \/ Congrats, the country is empty.\u201d Some groups have even been known to boo the national anthem.<\/p>\n

Perhaps as important as Morocco\u2019s investment in nurturing domestic talent has been its improved efforts to scout and court eligible international talent \u2014often the descendants of emigrants who have learned the game in world-class competitive environs elsewhere. The foundation of the national team\u2019s current so-called golden generation came from abroad. Fourteen of the twenty-six men on Morocco\u2019s 2022 World Cup roster were born outside the country; ditto nineteen on this summer\u2019s squad. Among them are Achraf Hakimi, the team\u2019s captain and one of the finest defenders in the world, who was born in Spain and came up playing for Real Madrid, before landing on a star-studded Paris Saint-Germain team. Brahim D\u00edaz, a midfielder for Real Madrid who has also played for Manchester City and A.C. Milan, briefly suited up for Spain\u2019s national team before switching his allegiance to Morocco. Neil El Aynaoui, an emerging midfield star, was raised in eastern France, and plays professionally in Rome. \u201cWe have, I think, more talent in Europe than Morocco,\u201d Moufakkir told me. He noted that the national team\u2019s players speak six different languages; their primary common tongue is English.<\/p>\n

Only nine players from Morocco\u2019s 2022 World Cup run have returned for this year\u2019s tournament. The most important d\u00e9but will be that of Mohamed Ouahbi, the team\u2019s new coach. It was Ouahbi, born in Belgium to Moroccan parents, who helmed Morocco\u2019s U-20 team to its championship last summer; he was placed in charge of the senior team just three months ago, after it had a disappointing showing in Afcon, Africa\u2019s continent-wide competition. (Morocco lost in the final to Senegal, but was later granted a controversial forfeit victory after officials determined Senegal\u2019s players had committed a disqualifying infraction by leaving the field during the game to protest a refereeing decision.) Ouahbi is a cerebral coach, favoring hybrid playing systems and mixing up attack strategies based on the opponent. \u201cWe don\u2019t know how we\u2019re going to play,\u201d Moufakkir said earlier this month. He sounded excited.<\/p>\n

Recently, I went to Amlu, a Moroccan restaurant just off Steinway Street, in Astoria, to watch Morocco\u2019s revamped squad play one of its final tune-up games, against Madagascar. During the 2022 World Cup, Astoria, which is more than one-third immigrants and dotted with North African shops, hosted standing-room-only watch parties for Morocco\u2019s games, and flare-lit celebrations after its wins. (A headline during the celebrations: \u201cAstoria Restaurants Are the Epicenter of the World Cup in NYC.\u201d) The day I visited\u2014a Tuesday afternoon, when Morocco hosted a friendly date with the world\u2019s hundred-and-fourth-ranked squad\u2014was understandably quieter.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I was there with Saber Chawni, a Moroccan influencer with millions of followers, who is in the middle of an extensive trip around the U.S. to tell stories about the Moroccan diaspora. (He has also gone Jet-Skiing around the Statue of Liberty and skydiving in Orlando.) Over a plate of cookies and a pot of mint tea, he told me about attending the 2022 World Cup, in Qatar. Because he was more comfortable conversing in Arabic, we spoke mostly through a combination of translation apps. But when I asked what it was like to witness Morocco\u2019s run that year, he brought a finger to each eye, then traced them down his cheeks. \u201cTears,\u201d he said. I asked for his take on the debate over how to categorize Morocco\u2019s representation. \u201cMorocco is an Amazigh, Arabic, and African country,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Even with Morocco resting key players, the day\u2019s match was not much of a competition. After Morocco\u2019s first goal, in the fourth minute, Chawni, who wore a navy polo, posted a video story on Instagram saying the game \u201cmight end with seven goals.\u201d In Darija, a Moroccan Arabic dialect, he carried on a running dialogue with an older man in a yellow polo who was eating kebabs at the next table. The conversation had the recognizable rhythm of sports fans\u2019 mixture of banter and good-natured ribbing. I asked the pair if they had met each other before. \u201cJust today,\u201d the older man, who grew up in Casablanca, said, matter-of-factly. \u201cMoroccan people are cool.\u201d<\/p>\n

Practically the entire game was played in Morocco\u2019s attacking third. The final was 4-0, which undersold its decisiveness. By the second half, Chawni was dashing off video clips of his travels to an editor for editing and posting later. \u201cWork, work, work,\u201d he said. While visiting Doha in 2022, he had thought he had been overly optimistic by not booking his return flight until the day after the tournament final\u2014a decision which came in handy when Morocco reached the third-place game, held the day before. \u201cHere in America, I did the exact same thing,\u201d he said. \u201cWhich means we are going to reach the final\u2014Inshallah.\u201d\u00a0\u2666<\/p>\n
