Morocco: Morocco kicks off its 2026 World Cup campaign with a challenging clash against Brazil at MetLife Stadium, New Jersey, aiming to repeat its historic FIFA Qatar 2022 semi-final run under coach Mohamed Wahbi.

According to Qatar News Agency, Brazil, led by Carlo Ancelotti, seeks a strong start to chase its sixth World Cup title. The match is crucial for both sides to assert their position among football elites.

Meanwhile, the United States begins its tournament against Paraguay at SoFi Stadium, Los Angeles, relying on coach Mauricio Pochettino and key European-based players, including Christian Pulisic, to impose a fast, attacking style.
