Morocco and the United Arab Emirates are set to face off in the semi-finals of the FIFA Arab Cup 2025 held in Qatar, with the match scheduled for Monday, December 15, at 14:30 GMT at Khalifa International Stadium. Morocco, one of the only two unbeaten teams in the tournament, arrives with a strong defensive record, conceding just one goal in four matches, and is led by standout defender Soufiane Bouftini. The Moroccan team faces challenges due to the suspension of Mohamed Moufid and fitness concerns over Tarik Tissoudali. The UAE, having improved after an initial defeat to Jordan, advanced by defeating Algeria in a penalty shootout in the quarter-finals. Their key players include goalkeeper Hamad Al Meqbaali, who has impressed throughout the tournament, and attacking leaders Caio and Bruno. The UAE team is dealing with injuries, including the absence of Fabio Lima and Khalid Eisa. Both teams are motivated to reach their first-ever Arab Cup final, with Morocco aiming to maintain their unbeaten streak and the UAE seeking to continue their surprising run. The semi-final is expected to be closely contested, with defensive solidity likely to be decisive. The match will be broadcast live on beIN SPORTS, among other channels, and the tournament concludes with the final scheduled for December 18 at Lusail Stadium.
