Morocco Reaches Second Arab Cup Final; Key Stats After Semi-Final Victory Over UAE

16 December 2025at13:19

The Moroccan national team continued its impressive run in the 2025 Arab Cup, securing a spot in the final after a comfortable 3-0 victory over the UAE national team. This achievement marks a historic repeat, as Morocco previously reached the final and won the title in the 2012 edition.

This qualification underscores the growing prominence of Moroccan football on the Arab stage. Morocco has now become one of the teams with the most appearances in the tournament final since the adoption of the knockout stage system in 1966.

The Moroccan national team has reached the final only twice in its history: in 2012 and 2025. This matches the number of appearances by Syria and Bahrain. Iraq and Saudi Arabia lead with three final appearances each, followed by teams such as Libya, Tunisia, Egypt, Algeria, and Qatar, who have reached the final only once.

Morocco previously won the Arab Cup once, in 2012. The 2025 edition adds a new chapter to its historical record, confirming its strong competitive ability at the Arab level and solidifying its position among the best teams in the tournament's history.
