A honeymoon in Morocco turned into an unexpected rescue mission for two American tourists. Francesca and Alex Nardi, who had come to the desert in search of a change of scenery, left with much more than just memories: they brought back with them Zahra, a stray cat saved at the last minute and who has now become the symbol of an unbreakable bond.
A perfect evening for the national team. Morocco brilliantly validated their first place in Group A by outclassing Zambia (3-0) at the Moulay Abdellah complex. Driven by a spectacular brace from Ayoub El Kaabi and total control, Walid Regragui’s men earn the right to continue the adventure at home, in Rabat, fully reassuring a public won over by the return of Achraf Hakimi.
The "off-the-record" has gone viral and the method is causing a stir. An El Heddaf Algerian channel journalist was caught red-handed manipulating while dictating false criticisms about the organization of the CAN to supporters, unaware that his microphone was recording everything.
Even on vacation, the ball is never far away. Taking advantage of the winter break to recharge under the sun of the Emirates, the jewel of FC Barcelona, Lamine Yamal, offered an unforgettable moment to young fans on a beach in Dubai.
The tragedy was narrowly averted thanks to the courage of a single man. Last Monday, in the La Plata neighborhood of Seville, a violent fire broke out in a family home , trapping two young girls inside. Without the intervention of Ibrahim, a young Moroccan present at the scene, the outcome would have been fatal.
After an ideal start against the Comoros, the Atlas Lions have their sights set on the top of Group A. This Friday in Rabat, Morocco will face Mali in a decisive match. While the intensity has increased during training with a present Achraf Hakimi , uncertainty remains around the health status of captain Romain Saïss.
The debut of Algeria in this CAN 2025 was marked by a stark contrast. While the Fennecs shone on the pitch by crushing Sudan (3-0), the pre-match was marred by scenes of chaos outside their hotel in Rabat, caused by a disorganized distribution of free tickets that required police intervention.
Zohran Mamdani chose the atmosphere of "Little Morocco" to follow the kickoff of the 2025 CAN. On Sunday, the new mayor of New York was spotted in a restaurant in Queens, vibrating to the rhythm of the victory of the Atlas Lions over the Comoros (2-0).
Mission accomplished for the Atlas Lions. The national team won (2-0) against the Comoros this Sunday evening in Rabat, in the opening match of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations. Thanks to goals from Brahim Díaz and Ayoub El Kaabi, Morocco temporarily takes the lead in Group A.
Hakim Ziyech has spoken a few hours before the kick-off of the Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco. The Moroccan international has broadcast a message calling on the public to massively support the national team during the tournament.
While Morocco shone with its title in the Arab Cup final, it was the match referee who offered the most viral sequence of the evening. Exasperated by the protests, the Swede Glenn Nyberg silenced the Jordanian players by speaking Arabic , causing general hilarity live.
The Arab Cup final will be remembered for the Moroccan triumph, but also for a less glorious image. During the official ceremony in Doha, several Jordanian players ostentatiously ignored the outstretched hand of Moroccan coach Tarik Sektioui, an unsportsmanlike attitude that has inflamed social media.
