Match Schedule:
Morocco vs. Ivory Coast
World Cup Qualifiers 2018
Date: 11 November 2017,
7:30
Venue: Stade Felix
Houphouet-Boigny, Abidjan
The Ivory Coast
team receives Morocco at the Stade Felix Houphouet in Abidjan. For both squads
it is a crucial match, since their future depends on it in the next World Cup to be held in Russia the
following year. The Moroccans march
with good rhythm, so it will not be easy for Ivory Coast, which is only one
point below them.
The Ivorian squad
occupies second place in group C of the African
Football Confederation qualifier with a total of 8 points. After 2 wins, 2
draws and one loss, Ivory Coast still has ample chances to qualify for the 2018 Russian World Cup, as long as they
get all 3 points this Saturday.
For Morocco this
will be a momentous match in their World Cup aspirations, a date they have not
attended since the World Cup held in France in 1998. Now they depend on
themselves to reach the fifth Cup in history, in their group they appear
undefeated with 9 points, in which they have not received annotations either.
