I congratulate all Moroccans and supporters. Many believed in us and it is proof that Africa is very well represented here at the Qatar Cup,” said Regragui, who did not miss from the last game.

It doesn’t mean we have to dominate everyone all the time. We played against other top countries. Morocco is one of the most motivated teams, they had a spectacular group stage. But we are very good, ”said Luis Enrique before the duel on Tuesday.
