Morocco manager Walid Regragui in the 2022 FIFA World Cup
Morocco manager Walid Regragui has done an excellent job leading this young national team to the 2022 FIFA World Cup semi-finals. Morocco has beaten Spain, Belgium, and Portugal on their way to becoming the first African nation to reach the last-4 of the prestigious competition.
Walid Regragui is the tactical genius behind Morocco‘s amazing World Cup run so far. Although, we know where the Moroccon master has been learning his skills from. It looks like Walid made some solid pointers from the seminar as he was seen listening to the Arsenal coach throughout the conference.
The African hearts are beating at the highest rate ever as they reach their first-ever semi-finals of the FIFA World Cup. With players like Achraf Hakimi, Yassine Bounou, Hakim Ziyech, and more, Morocco has truly shined as the underdog in this competition, having one of the toughest routes of this World Cup.
They have beaten all the odds and have broken various European dreams including those of Spain, and Portugal. Morocco also ended Cristiano Ronaldo’s world cup dream after their 1-0 victory over the Portuguese heavyweights. Walid Regragui and his boys have shown that they have the potential of becoming the World champions and they dream of nothing less.
Morocco’s road to the 2022 FIFA World Cup semi-finals
This tournament is turning out to be one of the best FIFA competitions in recent years with the kind of drama that has been shown on and off the pitch. Although, what one could have least expected from Morocco was to reach the semi-finals of the competition.
Morocco now faces the hardest challenge against reigning champions, as they meet rance in the semi-finals of the FIFA World Cup. Can Achraf Hakimi and his teammates pull another the 4th upset of this tournament, or would Mbappe walk through the Moroccan defense in the next round?
It will be a tough battle between the two teams as Morocco has only conceded a single goal throughout this tournament, but Kylian Mbappe is on a kill streak and is on the hunt for the golden shoe award with 5 goals in the competition already. Can the current top-scorer unlock the toughest team in the World Cup?
