Regragui expects a very difficult Morocco-Brazil match:

The national coach, Walid Regragui, accompanied by his captain, Romain Saïss, discussed the chances of the national team in the friendly match against Brazil on March 25. Walid Regragui says that Morocco is not the favorite against one of the best teams in the world, but that they will play with humility while trying to pose them as many problems as possible.

For the coach, Morocco intends to put on a great performance to show that the World Cup was not a surprise and to honor its audience, revealing that Achraf Hakimi’s presence was not assured due to a hamstring injury and that the young people called up, although they had been summoned, had little chance of participating.

However, the coach stressed that he had a lot of hope in this new rising generation and that he was also trying to prepare a generation so that Morocco is never short of quality players in the future.
