Hamdallah and Karti Lead Morocco’s Attacking Push to Outsmart Oman in the Arab Cup
4 December 2025
Match Preview
Tariq Sektioui, the Morocco locals' team coach, heads into the Arab Cup with an attacking mindset as he plans to unleash a forward-heavy lineup against Oman.
The Atlas Lions face Oman tomorrow, Friday, at Khalifa International Stadium in Group Stage’s second round, with Qatar hosting the tournament this year.
Morocco began their Arab Cup campaign by beating Comoros 3-1, while Oman opened with a 1-2 defeat to Saudi Arabia.
Sources told Kooora that Hamdallah of Al Shabab and Walid El Karti of Pyramids are set to spearhead the Moroccan attack.
Hamdallah came on as a substitute in the opener against Comoros, while Karti did not feature due to a late arrival in Qatar.
According to insiders, Sektioui will pair Karim Berkaoui with Hamdallah and Karti to complete a menacing attacking trident.
Humor Corner
Punchline time: If the attack misfires, Tariq might try stand-up—the crowd is already laughing at the scoreboard. Punchline 2: The ball moves faster than my Wi-Fi, but hopefully not as fast as the fans' cheers.
