Brazil vs Morocco FIFA World Cup 2025 Group C match Live: Five-time World Cup winners Brazil will be up against a massive challenge when they take on 2022 semi-finalists Morocco in their opening Group C match of the FIFA World Cup 2026 at the MetLife Stadium in New York, New Jersey on Saturday. To add to their woes, Brazil will miss the services of their talisman Neymar Jr for possibly the entire group stage campaign due to a calf injury.
The most successful team in the history of the World Cups is currently facing their longest title drought since they won the first title back in 1950. But it should be remembered that they are returning to the country where they last ended their 24-year-wait – in the United States by winning the 1994 World Cup.
Their opponents Morocco rewrote history by qualifying till the semifinals in the FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar. Since then, they have managed to add the Africa Cup of Nations 2026 title earlier this year.
But Brazil have only lost one opening match in the World Cup since making debut in 1930. They were held to a 1-1 draw by Switzerland in the FIFA World Cup 2018 – the first time since 1978 when they hadn’t managed to win their opening match. They bounced back from that result in 2022, when they beat Serbia 2-0.
“I’m an optimist by nature and I’m very confident. We’re well prepared to play a great game tomorrow and have a great World Cup. We need to put in a complete performance in every respect. In modern football, there are no weak teams, Morocco is one of the best teams in Africa,” Brazil head coach Carlo Ancelotti said in the pre-match press conference on Friday.
Brazil will be facing Morocco just the second time in World Cup history. Their last encounter in the tournament came back in 1998 in a game which featured Ronaldo and Rivaldo’s first-ever goals. Their only game since then was a friendly in Tunisia in March 2023, when Morocco emerged 2-1 winners with goals from Sofiane Boufal and Abdelhamid Sabiri.
