Morocco will finally give Walid Regragui the opportunity to be their coach. For his first meeting at head of the Atlas Lions (The first against Madagascar was not in the program editor’s notes(), the coach of Atlas Lions saw his soldiers in their best light. The Moroccans “crunched Chile (2-0), with goals by Soufiane Boufal (55) and Abdelhamid Sbiri (78). This is despite the fact that the score does not reflect the physiognomy. The Atlas Lions were committed to the Moroccan cause and threw around South Americans who had very little food in a stadium. Except for one shot by Bounou at the post, and one from Vidal at the bar, the match was uneventful. Roja would have been more satisfied with a better efficiency bill.
Ziyech, what an amazing comeback!
The public was eagerly awaiting Hakim Ziyech’s performance on the rectangle following his return to selection. However, the Chelsea left-hander proved to be a convincing player. He served his partner and multiplied the combinations he made with Soufiane Boufal. The supporters gave him a standing ovation when he left the match in the second period to make way Abde Ezzalzouli. It is clear that Regragui will rely on the Chelsea player to improve their attacking game. This sector is the first threat to the Atlas Lions, judging by its performance against La Roja. The Chileans will not contradict this statement. The coach can also put his money on Amine Harit, who made a decisive pass for another Abdelhamid Sabiri (Sampdoria de Genoa/Italy).
Fire Gobball
These new entrants will be an additional weapon. Amine Harit demonstrated his technical ability in the midfield, while Abde lit up the defense of La Roja. Osasuna’s new player, Amine Harit, deserved a better fate. Soufiane Boufal will be remembered as the man who made this meeting. The Angevin was delighted to be on Espanyol’s lawn, displaying his dribbling skills, of which he is the only one who knows. His converted penalty is more than a reward for his performance. This meeting could also seal the fate of players like Imran Louza and Aymane Barkok.
The equation to the left is solved
Regragui has, above all, solved a major equation against Chile: creating a convincing player on his left. Hakimi on Hakimi’s right and Noussair Mazaroui on the left were good choices. The Bayern defender was rarely in danger while Hakimi took part in the offensives. Before the goal was disallowed by Achraf Dari, the Parisian converted a free kick.
Only Youssefen-Nesyri seemed to be a tone below his colleagues, but it wasn’t noticeable that the collective displayed fluidity. Regragui can however resolve the En-Nesyri case thanks to the other attackers he has at his disposal (Zakaria Aboukhal, Walid Cheddira, Munir El Haddadi…).
Don’t get carried away
“It was an excellent match for the premier of the new coach.”Harit was briefly greeted after the encounter by Dari and Haddadi. Haddadi (Dari) and Haddadi (Haddadi) also spoke out, but they did not seem to be able to ignite. Morocco is rife with comments about the differences between Vahid’s football and that of Regragi. The most measured nevertheless expect other services as successful to get an idea of the capabilities of this selection. There are still flaws, especially with Ambrabat’s absence of a second jailer in the middle.
Paraguay will be facing Morocco on September 27th in Seville. This is an opportunity for them to prove their abilities and rectify any mistakes. The Atlas Lions, a formidable opponent in the World Cup, will be a strong one. Canada, Belgium and Croatia are warned by their armada
