The victory against Gabon (2-0) not only allowed Morocco to successfully start its campaign in the CAN 2027 qualifiers but also confirmed Mohamed Ouahbi’s desire to gradually integrate a new generation into the Lions of the Atlas.<\/p>\n
Against the Gabonese, several young players were given their chance. Yassir Zabiri and Yassine Gessime notably started the match, while Abdellah Ouazane made his debut with the national A team during the game.<\/p>\n
