Despite the difficulty of the task, Morocco holds the keys to reaching the World Cup semifinals.
Coaches have confirmed that the keys to winning against the French national team in the quarter-finals of the World Cup are available, and that the match will be balanced in the midfield.
Morocco faces France after overcoming Canada in the Round of 16 with a clean three-goal victory, while the French national team achieved a tough win against Paraguay with a score of one to zero.
Coach Youssef Shami stated that "the most important and fundamental point at this stage is to regain the physical fitness and medical readiness of the national team players, considering the significant impact left by the last match played against the Canadian team."
Shami added, in a statement to Hespress, that that encounter had a clear effect on the team's performance, both individually and collectively, especially during the periods when the ball was absent and technical and tactical errors increased, noting the lack of a strong and ideal start to the match.
He continued: "These physical and technical data are the first points that the technical and medical staff must take into account and work on, even though the conditions and recovery tools currently available remain at a very high level."
The second and most important point, according to the same coach, is the necessity of smart and responsible management of yellow cards, especially since the "Atlas Lions" are about to face a major match against the French national team, which features a strong front line with high-quality and elite strikers.
Shami emphasized the need to commend the national team players who, thanks to their experience and quality, have all the qualifications to achieve victory and continue their journey in the World Cup, which would represent a significant achievement for them.
Hassan Momen, a former coach of the national team, stated that "the World Cup has reached its decisive stage in the quarter-finals, which includes the elite of the elite and the best national teams in the world. Therefore, the upcoming match will be played on very precise details and nuances, just as we witnessed in the last difficult match against the Canadian team."
