    Morocco vs. Canada is a clash of diasporas

    Morocco's World Cup team features 18 of 26 players born in Europe, reflecting diaspora-driven recruitment and evolving eligibility rules. Canada similarly leverages multiculturalism by prioritizing dual nationals, exemplified by midfielder Stephen Eustáquio, who could have played for Portugal. The 2024 World Cup's expanded 48-team format and relaxed player-switching policies have reshaped how nations like Morocco and Canada build competitive squads.
