Oliseh says Morocco could have beaten Brazil with Osimhen or Lookman

Former Super Eagles coach, Sunday Oliseh, believes Morocco would have beaten Brazil 3-1 if they had players like Nigeria's Victor Osimhen or Ademola Lookman.

Oliseh made this statement on Sunday on his X account after Morocco's 1-1 draw with Brazil in their 2026 FIFA World Cup Group Stage match on Saturday.

He praised Morocco's performance, saying they showed great balance in attack and defense.

"Impressive performance by this Moroccan side, defensively and offensively well structured. Had this team had 'Victor Osimhen or Ademola Lookman' like players versus Brazil, they could have won by 3 goals to 1 at worst," he wrote.

Oliseh noted that Brazil's result was flattering, and he credited their star players for keeping the scoreline close.

"Brazil looking deceptive and thank God they had Vinicius Jr and Raphinha. I loved the belief and evolution from the Moroccans," he added.

Morocco secured a valuable point against the five-time world champions in a tough match that saw Vinicius winning the Superior Player of the Match award.
