Morocco’s U17 team must put in more effort to contend for the U17 Africa Cup of Nations title (AFCON), as they face tough opposition, national coach Nabil Baha told reporters in Mohammedia on Sunday.
The hardest part is still to come against opponents of a higher caliber than those in the group phase, Baha said at a press conference following Morocco’s 3-0 victory over Tanzania on day 3 of Group A, which secured qualification for both the quarterfinals of the U17 AFCON and the World Cup in Qatar.
” We must still have confidence in the players who showed their high-level talent, particularly in the forward line,” he emphasized.
For his part, Tanzania’s coach, Elieneza Nsanganzelu, pointed out that the Moroccan team is highly organized in all areas and boasts some talented players.
In his view, the Tanzanian players have learned a great deal from their participation, having come up against strong teams and top-level players.
At the end of the first round, the Moroccan team finished top of Group A, with 7 points, overtaking Zambia on goal average. The latter beat Uganda 2-1 in the other group match played in Casablanca.
In the quarter-finals, the Atlas Cubs will face the South African team next Thursday (8:00 p.m.) in Mohammedia.
