Morocco's Young Lions Roar: U20 Team Conquers World Cup

King Mohammed VI sent a message of congratulations to the members of the U20 national team after their victory over Argentina, during the World Cup held in Chile. The Sovereign says he followed "with immense joy and deep pride" their "heroic journey", "crowned by [a] well-deserved title".

The King "salutes this sporting prowess, the fruit of a high degree of self-confidence, your unwavering faith in your potential and talent, the spirit of cohesion and harmony you have shown, as well as your superb professional performance throughout this World Cup". The Lion Cubs, he points out, have "worthily honored their country and its youth" and "represented the African continent, as it should be".

The royal message also expresses shared, measured joy: "As much as you enchanted and brought joy to passionate football supporters, so you have filled us with happiness, as well as the entire Moroccan people." It extends the congratulations to all the components of the champion team - players, coaches, technical, medical and administrative staff, and officials of the FRMF - expressing "high regard" for their patriotism and commitment.

The conclusion sets a course of continuity rather than a one-time summit: maintain "the same seriousness" and pursue a "promising" career. The Sovereign finally implores the Almighty to "preserve them, [to] guide their steps" and grants them His "High solicitude and benevolence".
