The 2022 World Cup has left its mark on the minds of many football fans. First for its anthology final which pitted Argentina and France, but also for certain totally unexpected collective performances. We obviously think of Germany's premature exit from the group stage, but above all of this marvelous performance by Morocco, which managed to escape from a tough group (Belgium, Croatia and Canada), before successively eliminate Spain and Portugal, in the round of 16 then in the quarter-finals.
In an interview with an Egyptian television program, and relayed by the Portuguese media O JOGO, Fernando Santoswho was the coach of Portugal at the time, returned to the elimination of his team against the Moroccan selection: “ Morocco is a great team, but they were better prepared than us, that's why we lost in the quarter-finals of the 2022 World Cup. We were tired after managing to get out of a difficult group. »
Editor's note: Rest assured, we don't give much away to the declaration either, both in its purpose and in its justification.
