The FIFA Referees Committee has selected Bosnian referee Irfan Peljto to officiate the highly anticipated match between the Moroccan U20 team and their Mexican counterpart, scheduled for this Saturday evening, as part of the third round of the group stage of the 2025 Youth World Cup held in Chile.

The match will kick off at 9 PM Moroccan time, with the "Atlas Cubs" entering the game with confidence after securing early qualification to the Round of 16 by topping the group with a total of 6 points, following consecutive victories over Spain and Brazil.

On the other hand, the Mexican team approaches the match with the objective of winning, as they currently have two points from two draws, necessitating a win to secure direct qualification without waiting for the outcome of the Spain vs. Brazil match, both of which have one point each.

This match serves as a new test for the Moroccans to confirm their strength in the tournament and a crucial opportunity for Mexico to revive their chances of advancing to the next round.
