The Atlas Lionesses may have enjoyed a perfect start to their WAFCON 2026 campaign, but Sakina Ouzraoui insists the job is far from finished.
With victories over Kenya and Algeria, Morocco enters its final Group A match against Senegal aiming to secure first place and carry maximum momentum into the knockout rounds.
Full Focus on Senegal
Speaking ahead of Monday's encounter, Ouzraoui emphasized that Morocco is expecting a completely different challenge despite previous meetings between the two nations.
The forward noted that every team continues to evolve, making preparation and concentration essential ahead of another important test.
"We have played Senegal before, but tomorrow's match will be different because teams improve from year to year," she said. "We will give everything we have to achieve victory."
Nothing Taken for Granted
Despite collecting six points from the opening two matches, Ouzraoui stressed that Morocco is approaching the fixture with the same determination shown throughout the tournament.
She explained that the Atlas Lionesses remain fully committed to managing the game intelligently while creating the opportunities needed to make the difference.
According to the Moroccan international, the increasing competitiveness across African women's football means no opponent can be underestimated.
Chasing First Place
Rather than simply thinking about qualification, Morocco's objective is to finish at the top of Group A.
Another victory would allow the Atlas Lionesses to enter the quarterfinals with confidence after an impressive group-stage campaign on home soil.
Backed by passionate supporters, Jorge Vilda's side will look to continue the attacking football and disciplined performances that have defined their tournament so far.
Inspired by the Home Crowd
Ouzraoui also highlighted the role of Morocco's supporters, describing the home crowd as an invaluable source of motivation for the players.
Their energy has helped create a special atmosphere throughout the tournament, giving the Atlas Lionesses extra belief as they pursue a historic first Women's Africa Cup of Nations title.
With first place within reach and the knockout stage on the horizon, Morocco remains determined to finish the group phase in style and continue building momentum for the challenges that lie ahead.
