Morocco’s national team will play a friendly match against Norway this June as part of their preparations for the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup. The encounter is scheduled to take place on June 9th in Oslo.
The match, confirmed by the Royal Moroccan Football Federation, represents a key test for the Atlas Lions. It falls within the international window designated by FIFA, allowing both sides to field their strongest available squads.
This Scandinavian test is seen as a crucial step in Morocco’s build-up to the global tournament. The team, which made history by reaching the World Cup semi-finals in 2022, aims to fine-tune its tactics and assess players against high-level European opposition.
For Norway, the friendly offers a significant challenge against one of the world’s top-ranked teams, despite their own absence from the upcoming World Cup. The game provides a valuable opportunity for their squad to develop.
The June fixture continues Morocco’s strategy of seeking competitive preparation. Facing a side known for its physical and organized style will be a useful experience for the North African squad as their World Cup campaign draws nearer.
