Morocco coach Walid Regragui confirmed that the ambition of the “Atlas Lions” is to beat Spain and qualify for the quarter-finals of the 2022 World Cup.
"The players achieved qualification and gave more than we expected from them, but we have to forget what we did in the group stage, so that we can focus on the final price," Rekragui said in statements to the FIFA website.
He continued, "We will face the best teams in the world from a technical point of view. They are a team that tries to make the game easy and maintain possession."
He added, "In 2018, we proved that we are a team that can compete against them. We hope to repeat this achievement again."
He concluded, "Our goal is to qualify in any way possible. We will try to find the best combination in order to pose a threat to this team, but frankly on paper they are the closest to winning."
And the FIFA account published on Twitter a picture of Al-Karaki, who became the first Arab coach to reach the round of 16, while he was holding an avocado with a soccer ball inside it, and pointing his finger at his head with defiant features, in a message to his critics.
During the victory celebrations, the players gathered around Regragui and all touched his head, as the Moroccan coach jokingly said that he allowed the "Atlas Lions" players to touch his baldness, which might bring them luck in achieving victory, indicating that they mocked a lot of his baldness, but he allowed them to touch it after qualifying for the final price. .
