Atlas Lions coach urges caution ahead of crucial qualifier

Morocco coach Walid Regragui has warned his players against complacency as they prepare to face Lesotho in an Africa Cup of Nations qualifier on Saturday.

The Atlas Lions are heavy favorites to win the match, but Regragui is well aware of the dangers of underestimating their opponents.

"Lesotho are a good team," said Regragui.

"They have some very good players, and they will be very motivated to beat us.

"We need to be careful and make sure that we don't take them lightly."

Lesotho pose a threat to Morocco

Lesotho may be ranked 144th in the world, but they have a number of players who play in Europe.

They also have a good record in recent qualifiers, having won four of their last six matches.

Morocco will need to be at their best to beat Lesotho, and they will need to avoid the mistakes that they made in their last match, a 2-1 defeat to South Africa.

Regragui has a plan to beat Lesotho

Regragui has a plan to beat Lesotho, and he is confident that his team can get the win.

"We have studied Lesotho, and we know their strengths and weaknesses," said Regragui.

"We have a plan to exploit their weaknesses, and we are confident that we can get the win."

Morocco need to win to qualify for AFCON

Morocco need to win their remaining two qualifiers to guarantee their place at the Africa Cup of Nations.

They are currently top of their group, but they are only one point ahead of South Africa.

A win over Lesotho would put Morocco in a strong position to qualify for the tournament, and it would also give them a psychological boost ahead of their final qualifier against South Africa.
