Morocco’s national coach, Rachid Taoussi, is emphasizing the importance of performing better than in previous years in the upcoming African Cup of Nations (CAN). Despite the challenges of traveling with a young and relatively inexperienced team, Taoussi is optimistic and believes in the potential of the players.
The coach selected the squad based on the players’ current form and the desired style of play. He acknowledges that some players have not participated in a major tournament before but sees this as an opportunity for them to prove their worth.
Morocco is placed in what Taoussi considers a “less dangerous” group alongside South Africa, Angola, and Cape Verde. While expressing optimism, Taoussi also stresses the importance of staying grounded and realistic. Despite external issues, such as challenges in South Africa, the focus remains on the tournament, and the coach aims to keep the team concentrated on their objectives.
