Morocco and Ecuador played out a 1-1 draw in an International Friendly on 27 March, with both sides adopting identical 4-2-3-1 formations in a cautiously balanced encounter. The hosts dominated territorially, recording 12 shots with an expected goals figure of 1.21, though they managed only three shots on target, suggesting wayward finishing despite their dominance. Ecuador's more compact approach limited them to eight attempts, generating just 0.58 xG, but their clinical finishing proved crucial—they required only two shots on target to match Morocco's output. Ecuador's goalkeeper made one save above expected performance, maintaining a 50 per cent save rate that proved decisive in securing a point. Referee Jose Luis Munuera Montero oversaw a largely uneventful affair devoid of major controversy. The result leaves both nations with mixed preparation heading into competitive fixtures.
