World Cup 2026 coaches Scaloni and Ouahbi stress tactical flexibility ahead of Argentina‑Jordan and Morocco‑Netherlands

Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni said there is no single formula for victory as his team, already assured of progressing to the 2026 World Cup knockout stage, prepares to face Jordan in the final group match. He emphasised the need for adaptability, noting Argentina’s success has come from being able to change tactics rather than following one prescribed style.

Morocco coach Mohamed Ouahbi, ahead of the round‑of‑16 clash with the Netherlands, replied to tactical questions with humour about goalkeeper Yassine Bounou but reaffirmed that the team will stick to its own philosophy. He stressed keeping the Dutch side away from his defensive third and highlighted the emotional backdrop of several Moroccan players who were born or trained in the Netherlands.

Both coaches used the pre‑match moments to underline that flexibility and consistency, rather than a single game‑plan, guide their teams in the tournament.
