The 48th edition of the Maurice Revello Tournament will take place from June 1 to 14 in the Bouches-du-Rhône department. The format of the competition remains identical to previous years: 12 teams will participate in the Tournament and will be divided into 3 groups of 4 teams each. At the end of the group phase, the winners of each group and the best runner-up qualify for the semi-finals. The remaining teams play ranking matches.
Last month, we have started to unveil progressively the Maurice Revello Tournament 2020 line-up. After announcing the participation of DR Congo, Japan, England and Vietnam, we are glad to confirm that Morocco will compete in the Maurice Revello Tournament on June, for the first time since 2015.
The Lions de l'Atlas, who will make their sixth appearance at the Maurice Revello Tournament, can pride themselves as being one of the two only African nations, alongside Ivory Coast, to have reached the final of the Tournament. In 2015, the Moroccan national team made this performance after producing spectacular displays throughout the competition.
