About the Moroccan national team – by / Badr Al-Din Al-Idrisi
We did not make a mistake and our intuition was not disappointed, and we are certain that the Confederation of African Football did not take all that time to read the disastrous and scandalous scene that led to the finals of the African Championship for local players that were held in Algeria, except that it fell into great embarrassment and found neither the strength nor the trick to submit to the spirit of the law and confront The flagrant departure from the spirit and essence of heroism with firmness and rigor that cuts off every attempt to prejudice these laws.
The mountain gave birth to a decent communiqué that the Confederation of African Football made public, giving us a summary of what the investigations and investigations had reached, absolving Morocco of all responsibility for not participating in the latest version of the matter, and warning Algeria of the consequences of falling again in the same scenes that marred the opening ceremony, this All that the Confederation was able to do, and it chose the word “alert” rather than other words imposed by the law, words such as “rebuke” and “punishment”, to show once again how miserable, helpless, and powerless an institution it is, and our great regret for it because it owned In her hands is the opportunity to hear the law a voice and strictness a whip, but she missed all of that, and tomorrow if the same scandalous scene that prevailed at the opening ceremony of the matter is repeated here or there, it will fall into the theory of precedents, so how can this be punished and not the other?
It was obvious that the Royal Moroccan Football League would raise a loud voice of protest, having reached the conclusion of the ruling of the guardian apparatus of African football in this matter, and that it would immediately go to appeal this miserable ruling, in defense of its interests and in defense of the entity of the CAF institution and in implementation of the wisdom of the measure that Its first argument says that there should be no negligence in the spirit of the law.
The Confederation of Africa cleared the Royal Moroccan Football Association of any responsibility for not participating in the championship, so it did not see any accusation that required punishment as stipulated in the tournament system, and perhaps it came here with a truncated legal sentence that made the ruling lose its spirit. The impossibility of participating, it was necessary to tell us who is responsible and to expose him to punishment so that there will be no return in the future, and the situation is that the university saw that our national team was prevented from participating in the matter because of the stubbornness, persistence and arrogance of the organizers of this championship in Algeria, when they refused to grant a plane Royal Air Maroc Football, the official carrier of national teams, is authorized to enter Algerian airspace, which is prohibited for Moroccan airlines.
And because CAF tolerated this issue lightly, and it was necessary for it to adhere to what is in the regulations, the university believes today that none of the national teams will be able to be present in a continental or regional championship that will be held on the soil of Algeria, because it will not be allowed to move on board. The official carrier, and this is a blatant attack on the interests of national football, and I do not know how CAF will treat tomorrow the Moroccan national team’s flight for under 17 years to Algeria to participate in the African Cup of Nations qualifying for the World Cup, if the Algerian authorities continue their intransigence and stubbornness and refuse to hand over the licensed “Laram” plane to enter the closed atmosphere.
Morocco is doing what it can to reach the depth of its African continent, with development projects in which the parties share the economic and social profit, without arrogance, without contempt, and without the slightest bloodshed. It is woven around him by all those who wanted to be singled out for a longer time with the bounties of Africa, and he will certainly never stop helping the Confederation of African Football in saving the dream of millions of African youth in creating a happy future. For their race, he is well positioned in the institution in order to raise the value of its governance, and if he did so, he did not expect any reward or thanks from anyone, except that with every feeling that his interests were shaken, and that there were those who imagined that he could concede, he would definitely transform To the lion who, if others see that his fangs are sticking out, does not mean that he is smiling, because no door can be opened and no discussion can be raised, whenever it comes to national issues that are far removed from all dialogue, foremost of which is the issue of our precious desert, which is an integral part of a third homeland. Our logo ribs sacred.
Today, the Confederation of African Football knows in which slide it put itself in its miserable rule that it concluded, and it knows in which wind it placed its credibility, and perhaps it also knows that the law is like a lofty honor that does not escape harm unless blood is spilled on its sides.
Thus we give without harm, but we never allow anyone to laugh at us.
