Morocco's Africa Cup of Nations squad arrived in Durban, South Africa, on Monday - two days
after they drew 0-0 with Angola in their opening game in Group A.
The 'Lions of the Atlas' have touched down to begin preparations for their second game
in Group A against minnows Cape Verde, who held hosts South Africa to a 0-0 draw in their
opening game.
After playing Cape Verde on Wednesday, Morocco will remain in Durban for their final game
of the group phase against South Africa, which will be played on Sunday.
While Morocco are seen as one of the bigger teams in the competition, they have only one
Africa Cup of Nations title to their name, and that came back in 1976.
Tuesday's matches will see the Ivory Coast take on Togo, while Algeria face Tunisia.
