Walid Regragi spoke about the reasons behind his team’s defeat in the semi-finals of the World Cup.
The reason for the defeat of the Moroccan team in the semi-finals of the World Cup by France was the large number of injured players. This is what Atlas Lions head coach Walid Regragui said.
According to the expert, those who replaced the leaders did not have enough skills to fight the French.
“We lost to Agerd in the warm-up. Saiss and Mazraoui didn’t make it to the second half. It was a lot of losses for us, but those who played gave their best.
However, against France, the smallest mistake was immediate revenge. We couldn’t reach the final with as many losses as in the first half. After the break everything went better. However, we failed to score, the team, on the contrary, received the second goal.
In the fight for third place it will be difficult mentally. We will give playing time to those who received less of it before. We want to be third. The most important thing is to present yourself on the good side. To show that football exists in Morocco, that we have great fans,” L’Equipe quoted the coach as saying.
It will be recalled that France reached the final of the 2022 World Cup, where they will meet the Argentina team, which defeated Croatia 3-0 in the first semi-final. This match will take place on 18th December. A day before, on December 17, a duel for bronze medals will take place, where Croatia and Morocco will meet.
