The result not only shattered the previous record of 13-0 set by Spain against New Zealand but also kept Morocco’s hopes of advancing to the knockout stage alive.

The Moroccan team displayed relentless attacking play throughout the match, with Abdelali Eddaoudi leading the charge. Eddaoudi, who was named Player of the Match, contributed significantly to the dominant performance, scoring two goals in the first half and being heavily involved in many of his team’s offensive moves.

New Caledonia, struggling from the outset, found themselves further hampered by a pair of first-half red cards. Typhan Dreuko and Jean Canehmez were both sent off for foul play, leaving their side severely undermanned for the rest of the match. With New Caledonia reduced to just nine players, Morocco took full advantage of the numerical superiority.

Several Moroccan players found the back of the net in this one-sided affair, with Oualid Ibn Salah, Ziyad Baha, Nahel Haddani, Ismail El Aoud, and Abdellah Ouazane all scoring braces. The team’s offensive juggernaut showed no signs of slowing, as they piled on the goals to secure a truly historic win.

Despite the overwhelming scoreline, Morocco finished third in Group B, trailing Japan and Portugal. They now face a tense wait as the group stage concludes, hoping to qualify as one of the best third-placed teams for the Round of 32.

This resounding victory not only puts Morocco in the spotlight but also solidifies their place in U-17 World Cup history.
