Morocco in the semi-final of the CM, who would have believed it? The Atlas Lions succeeded in this challenge thanks to their team spirit, the tactical cunning of their coach and the technical quality of the players. The last rampart of the team, the goalkeeper Yassine was really … Molto Bounou!
We do not know what will be the outcome of the semi-final which will oppose the Atlas lions to the Habs, this Wednesday, but we can, already, say that Morocco has written the history of football as the first African and Arabic team to reach the square of Ace of a World Cup.
Moroccan lessons …
It is an understatement to say that Morocco achieved the feat of accessing the CM semi-final, by this resounding course, the Atlas lions changed the world of football and overshadowed as to the impossibility of African and Arab teams to reach an advanced stadium of a CM.
Through this resounding course, the Moroccans challenged game tactics that have registered permanently as being unsustainable. Today, the Catenaccio should be built on which the Inter d’Herrera created its legend in the 1960s, and now speak of the Catenaccio de Regragui.
It would also be necessary to no longer emphasize the fact that we should grant freedom on the ground to the stars of the team and not overwhelm them with defensive tasks. When we see the enormous defensive role played by Ziyech and En-Nesyri, we make ourselves obviously that training draws his strength of the team spirit of his players more than the value of his individualities.
It would undoubtedly be necessary to look at the coach-player relationship and why not meditate on that of Regragui which made it a mixture of both firmness and flexibility, which is good to see.
It would be undoubtedly necessary to put an end to the idea that poses the balloon a virtue. The purpose of football is to score goals, monopolize the ball without achieving its ends is a failure that cannot be said and described.
The lessons that Morocco has given us to see are inexhaustible. We will come back to this timely.
France is warned!
We would like Deschamps to redo the blow of Tunisia and line up a largely revamped France team, maybe this option will take Court Regragui!
Pleaning aside, Morocco-France will be a combination of physical combat, technical prowess and tactical culture. If the French have all the pallets, the Moroccans are nonetheless lottis and seem to have the means to pose problems to the reigning world champion.
The only concern that Regragui could express is, undoubtedly, the state of health of its executives, Ziyech, Saïss, Amrabat and Mazraoui who must quickly recover in anticipation of this duel which will be colorful.
Less worries about Deschamps, the tricolor coach, to whom an extension of the contract was offered to him by the FFF, will repeat the same team that beat England on Saturday. The attraction of the match will undoubtedly be the opposition Hakimi-Mbappé, the two PSG teammates must forget the space of this match their “legendary” friendship to honor their nations.
Argentina-Croatia: style opposition
The first semi-final between Argentina and Croatia, today at 8:00 p.m., will not be disputed and indecisive and the use of extensions is a possibility that should not be ruled out.
The two teams have so far got out of many complicated situations. Beaten in their first match by the Saudis, the Argentines found the resources necessary to seal thanks to a Messi still in despite the weight of age.
Same scenario for Croatia which has demystified, to everyone’s surprise, Brazil in the quarter -finals and composted a place in the square of Ace, amply deserved. A match in the match between two world football behemoths: Messi-Modric.
Perhaps, perhaps, the qualification of one or the other team will depend. Suspense in perspective.
