Atlas Lions Roar Back: Morocco Overcome Haiti Scare, Join Brazil In The Knockouts

Morocco Vs Haiti Match Gallery, FIFA World Cup 2026: Morocco advanced as Group C runners-up following a thrilling 4-2 win against Haiti in Atlanta. The underdogs shocked the Atlas Lions by taking the lead twice, first through a Yassine Bounou own goal and later via a 31-yard strike from Wilson Isidor. However, Morocco's class prevailed as Achraf Hakimi, Ismael Saibari, Soufiane Rahimi, and Gessime Yassine all found the back of the net to stage a spectacular comeback. The big talking point was Haiti's fearless attacking display despite their eventual elimination, pushing the African giants to their limits. Meanwhile, in the group's simultaneous fixture, Brazil thrashed Scotland 3-0 in Miami thanks to a Vinicius Junior brace and a Matheus Cunha goal, a game marked by Neymar's return. Group winners Brazil and 2nd-placed Morocco march into the Round of 32, while Haiti exit the tournament, leaving 3rd-placed Scotland awaiting their fate.
