Walid Regragui, head coach of the Morocco national team I admit that it’s a pity that they didn’t reach the final. But I think this is a beautiful experience.
Morocco became the first African nation to reach the World Cup semi-finals. But they were beaten 2-0 by France.
They were dropped to third-placed Croatia tonight, and Regragui admitted he regretted not making it to the final. But I see this as a great experience for them.
“I wanted things to be different and we got to the final. We still have another game to play. We want to stand on the podium,” Chao said during a press conference.
“I understand that finishing third is better than fourth, but my point is that we didn’t reach the final. We want like the final on Sunday. Not tomorrow (Saturday)”
“But I told the players, “This is our seventh World Cup. If you told Morocco fans we were going to play our seventh game on December 17th, they would be proud.
Morocco played six World Cup games in the last 20 years. past And now we play 6 games in one month. It was considered very valuable. It’s as if we’ve played two World Cups or more. That’s the beauty of the experience.”
