Morocco waited 20 years to return to play in a World Cup: when in 1998 the competition was organized by France, the Moroccan team came third in the group, behind Brazil and Norway. There is a curious fact about the team that will go to Russia 2018: only one of the 23 players was born in Morocco, the others 22 were born and raised in Europe. The first and historic qualification of the "Atlas Lions" in a World Cup was in Mexico 1970: in the second qualifying phase they played a "tiebreak" game against Tunisia that ended with a draw, and by means of the coin toss Morocco qualified. Winning against Nigeria and Sudan they went to Mexico. The draws put in the path of the Moroccan Team one of the strongest teams of that World Cup: the West Germany. In the first match the Moroccan team scored the first goal, but Seeler and Müller completed the German comeback.
