Vahid Halilhodzic was a happy man on Tuesday night in Yaoundé, after Morocco's victory over Malawi (2-1) on Tuesday in the round of 16 of the Cameroon CAN.

“When you create so many chances, it means that the team has a good background, dropped the coach of the Atlas Lions.

She played one of the best first halves I've seen at the AFCON, and I watch a lot of matches, with such a level of rhythm, in construction… Unfortunately, we lack efficiency.

But the guys didn't give up.

A quest since 1976

“We don't say that we are the best, that we are the most beautiful, that we play the best football, launched Halilhodzic.

With each match like this, we are stronger, we gain confidence.
