The team travelled by road from Fez to the Moroccan capital. This was confirmed in a video shared on Monday on X by popular Nigerian sports photographer Sulaimon Adebayo, also known as Pooja.

The video showed the players and team officials inside an official AFCON team bus moving through the city.
