Disaster for the Atlas Lions! Key playmaker Ismael Saibari is officially ruled out of the World Cup quarterfinal against France. A lingering hamstring injury sustained against Canada forces him to the sidelines for this high-stakes clash. Coach Ouahbi remains hopeful for a semifinal return, but for now, Soufiane Rahimi steps up to lead the charge against the French giants.
