Morocco
The 2022 World Cup revelation — the first African team to reach the semi-finals. Morocco's defensive organisation is world-class and their counter-attacking threat is lethal. They arrive in 2026 as legitimate quarter-final favourites and have risen to become one of the world's top-eight ranked nations.
