The 1970s was a decade which featured two stand out moments for Moroccan football: the partipication and the strong performances at the 1970 World Cup and the winning of the African Cup of Nations six years later.
Competing in the finals of a World Cup for the first time, Morocco were in no way out of their depth on the global stage and i their opening group stage game even led mighty West Germany before losing narrowly 2-1. A 3-0 defeat to Peru was more in line with expectation and ensured group stage elimination before a strong end to their campaign with a 1-1 draw against Bulgaria, Maouhoub Ghazouani scoring the equaliser for the Lions of the Atlas.
In the 1976 African Cup of Nations a side that featured defining contributions from keeper Mohamed Hamid Hazzaz, defender Mustapha Fetoui and free-scoring forward Ahmed Faras won the competition by finishing top of the final group stage, winning two of its games and drawing the other.
Ahmed Faras scored 3 goals to finish as the tournaments top scorer and Abdelaali Zahraoui contributed a couple of his own.
