Morocco's coach, Mohamed Ouahbi, made several tactical adjustments, including moving players to less familiar positions, in an attempt to counter France's blistering speed. However, these changes, along with the absence of key players, proved insufficient against France's commanding performance. The French team's ability to control the match, impose their physicality, and utilize their speed in the final third ultimately proved too much for Morocco.
