About the Moroccan national team – by / Badr Al-Din Al-Idrisi
Many of those I read or monitor their analyses learned from football lessons, and what they learned from the burrows from which they were bitten many times, and they gather without the slightest margin of reservation that Al-Ahly of Egypt is on a fast track to winning the African League bet and taking revenge for its loss of the title last season. In front of the red genie, Wydad the athlete who became a lover of the little princess, he should stand at her door and ask for her title. Saying that Al-Ahly has ample chances to win the title, or rather to regain it from Wydad, do not make reservations for me about it, as people speculate and conjecture doctrines, but the assertion that there is no hope for Wydad to capture its fourth and second league title in a row, and that Al-Ahly today is stronger than Wydad in stages, is not accepted. For Al-Ahly to drink from the same cup as last season, especially since the final of the current version will take place according to the old system, back and forth, in which there is a lack of respect for the competitor and in it there is a lack of appreciation for the nature of the final, which is difficult to measure, and the situation is that this time, as previously, we are standing at an ideal and exemplary final. It’s hard to predict who will be his hero. There is no dispute that Al-Ahly was lucky enough to qualify from the group stage at the expense of the Sudanese Crescent, so whoever forgets that the Sudanese Al-Hilal player Al-Taher missed a penalty kick if he had scored it against Mamelodi Sun Downs, today we would be talking about another final, whose reference enabled him to move with great ease from The quarter-final round at the expense of Raja Athletic, and from the semi-final round at the expense of Tunisian Esperance Athletic, but Wydad Athletic also descended deep into its legend to perform an ontological performance with which it succeeded in overthrowing those who put the title of this version on its neck, Mamelodi Sundowns of South Africa, who was sent in Space meteorites and it hits ahli there in pretoria with quintet. And if Al-Ahly’s allies relied on the inspiration that guided him in the knockout rounds, to raise the percentage of their candidacy for the chief of the nation to win the title, then we, as supporters of Wydad, and he has become a master of the competition, evoke the version of Wydad in front of Mamelodi there in South Africa, to confirm that Wydad was not qualified and a candidate to retain the title. League in Morocco, more than this time. Certainly, today we are facing a complex picture, and the final takes place in two rounds, first leg in Cairo Al-Moez and return in Casablanca with the Fire Boat, and it will be fortunate for Wydad to open the final race there in Cairo, and luck is that all the pressure from the beginning will be on Al-Ahly of Egypt, as victory appears Wydad, with a comfortable share, is an urgent need, otherwise it will be a tactical and psychological burden that will fall on the shoulders of Al-Ahly coach and players. Certainly, this pressure that falls on Al-Ahly players and is carried by mountains, its nature and terrain will be determined by what Wydad will do there in the Cairo stadium, and how beautiful it is for Wydad to play that round in a complex style that mixes in a smart way between the defensive bloc that takes the nature of the sea in its ebb and flow, with convergence The lines and guarding the area with the lowest possible percentage of errors, and between the studied offensive apostate, who Al-Ahly feels that Wydad did not come with the intention of building defensive walls and standing behind them, so I said that the Pretoria match against Mamelodi Sundowns represents for Wydad a tactical reference, I am sure that if he dedicated it in a match Cairo, to achieve victory there, the victory that Wydad could not achieve in any of the matches it played while it was visiting Al-Ahly. And because Wydad coach Sven Vandenbroek succeeded in record time in adapting the collective performance of Wydad according to the dimensions of his tactical thought, and this was evident when confronting Mamelodi Sun Downs, he is expected to read carefully the Al-Ahly newspaper, to come up with the tactical system that does to Al-Ahly the same thing that he did to him. South African team. If it is an ideal and exemplary final, we cannot find a better one than Wydad and Al-Ahly to be its two ends, and the hope is great in Wydad of the nation to accomplish what it deserves, to raise the hat for it, a fourth title, which will be the eighth for Moroccan clubs in the history of the Champions League.
