France president, Emmanuel Macron spoke to Moroccan players
The Moroccan dream was about to get fulfilled until Thursday. Morocco topped their group, beat Belgium, Spain, and Portugal, and had to defeat defending champions France to make it to the final. Sadly, the journey ended with a 2-0 loss to the Les Blues. Morocco’s team has been rained with praise from worldwide; the list also includes France’s President Emmanuel Macron. He was reported to have praised Sofyan Amrabat’s role for the Atlas Lions and called him the best midfielder of the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
The Moroccan side was extremely disappointed after the game as they lost on the biggest stage of their career. French President Emmanuel Macron celebrated his team’s win in the dressing room with them. He then went to the Moroccan dressing room to console the team. During the visit, he praised Sofyan Amrabat for his heroics and hailed him as the best in this tournament. The 44year old president was delighted with France’s win, with a well-deserved cushion, between the elated fans who were enjoying the success.
The president ran into the tunnel with his bodyguards and security and congratulated each player personally. At the same time, everyone celebrated and danced as it was their second consecutive final place after winning the last edition of the 2022 FIFA World Cup. Everyone praised Morocco’s exceptional run in the tournament, and they believed to be the perfect finalists, if not the crown winners.
When talking about the players on the ground, the relationship between Kylian Mbappe and Achraf Hakimi has been envied by many, as they both belong to PSG back in Paris, where they’ll both fight for their dream UCL title together. Both players come across as healthy minds, and there won’t be any sign of trouble between the two after they go back home and play the club football; whether the Frenchman wins the Golden trophy or not, it’s all cool between Achraf and him.
