Atlas Lions to play first three World Cup 2026 matches in New York, Boston and Atlanta
Morocco’s national football team, the Atlas Lions, will play all three of their group-stage matches at the 2026 FIFA World Cup in the United States, specifically in the cities of New York (New Jersey), Boston and Atlanta.
According to the match schedule unveiled by FIFA during a ceremony in Washington, the Moroccan team will open their campaign against Brazil in New York (New Jersey) on Saturday, June 13, 2026, at 6:00 p.m. local time (11:00 p.m. GMT+1).
The Atlas Lions will then face Scotland in their second match, scheduled for Friday, June 19, in Boston at 6:00 p.m. local time (11:00 p.m. GMT+1).
Morocco’s third group-stage match will take place in Atlanta, where they will meet Haiti on Wednesday, June 24, at 6:00 p.m. local time (11:00 p.m. GMT+1).
All three fixtures being held on the U.S. East Coast will facilitate travel for both players and supporters. New York, Boston and Atlanta also host significant Moroccan communities and benefit from multiple international airports and well-developed public transportation systems.
Morocco was drawn into Group C alongside Brazil, Scotland and Haiti during Friday’s draw in Washington. The ceremony was attended by U.S. President Donald Trump, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, representing the three host nations of the 2026 World Cup.
FIFA President Gianni Infantino described the upcoming tournament as “the biggest World Cup ever organized.” The 42 teams already qualified will be joined in March by six additional playoff winners, bringing the total number of participants to 48 for the first time in the competition’s history.
This unprecedented edition will also be the first to be co-hosted by three countries and will feature 104 matches, including 78 in the United States, 13 in Canada and 13 in Mexico.
