Morocco finished fourth after losing to Croatia in the third-place play-off. The team defeated Belgium, Spain, and Portugal during the historic ride.
The FRMF led by president Fouzi Lekjaa was awarded for the work it does to radiate and develop football in Morocco in recent times.
The support of the FRMF helped Moroccan clubs RS Berkane and Wydad Casablanca claim the CAF Confederation Cup and Champions League respectively during the 2021/22 season.
They won the African Nations Championship in 2018, and 2020.
With president Lekjaa at the helm of the federation, the Royal Moroccan Football Federation has become arguably the best in Africa.
