The Group C opener between Brazil and Morocco finished in a 1-1 draw, with both teams sharing the points in the first round of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
The Atlas Lions pressured and attacked the Brazilian team from the first minute. They scored the opening goal, but Brazil rectified the situation quickly and managed to equalize.
Match Highlights and Goals
Morocco opened the scoring early in the game, with Ismael Saibari finding the net in the 20th minute. However, Brazil were rescued by a brilliant solo goal from Vinicius Jr.
Carlo Ancelotti’s team was poor throughout the game, especially physically, compared to seventh-ranked Morocco, who fought hard and threatened Alisson multiple times.
In the end, Brazil were very lucky to walk away with one point from their Group C opener. Their performance against Morocco raises a lot of concerns about how this team will deal with much harder matches in the later rounds of the World Cup.
