00:00Good morning ladies and gentlemen, welcome on median.tv for Maxi Sport, your sports news.
00:20After a successful victory against Niger 2-1, Morocco has passed 5-0 by beating Tanzania by 2-0.
00:27three new points, which gives them nine points ahead of the two nations mentioned,
00:31bringing them much closer to the World Cup 2026, while waiting for the Imbroglio around the Congo-Brazzaville.
00:37Not everything was perfect for the players of Walid Regreggie.
00:40For this tenth consecutive success, after a start full of rhythm,
00:43the Moroccans did not get a single opportunity in the first act,
00:47nor even managed a framed shot.
00:49It was necessary to wait for the return of the changing rooms so that the situation could be unblocked
00:52through Naif Egerd, who was well positioned on a second ball,
00:55who after a corner opened the score six minutes after the end of the break.
00:59Then, in the same dynamic, Brahim Diaz converted a penalty obtained by Nousair Mazraoui
01:04to take a break and offer a serene end to the Lyon-Atlas match,
01:07which will return in June for two friendly matches against Tunisia and Benin.
01:14First of all, congratulations to the players, to the fans.
01:21Another victory, as I said, the fifth victory in the qualifiers in five matches.
01:27So, first of all, I want to say bravo to the players.
01:30This is not the third month, especially with Ramadan.
01:32Last year we had a problem with Mauritania in rhythm.
01:36So, today we solved the problem.
01:40We had a problem with one of the blockers again.
01:42There was a difference in the shots, in the defense, in the kills.
01:46As I said, it was a logical victory.
01:49When we had the ball, we made them run, shot, shot, shot.
01:52In the first half, bravo to them.
01:54We didn't score.
01:56We had fewer opportunities because we didn't train a lot in the square.
02:00In the second half, we solved the problem in the half.
02:03We were more on the surface.
02:05As I said yesterday, in the matches, it was a bit complicated.
02:08But we scored the first goal.
02:10It was a good match.
02:12We had a lot of chances.
02:14We scored the second goal.
02:16It was a logical penalty in the square.
02:18Then we controlled the match like a big team.
02:20We entered the club without injuries.
02:22We entered at the end of the season.
02:24But bravo.
02:2615 points out of 15.
02:28Last year we had six victories in the Africa Cup qualifiers.
02:32There are 18 points out of 18.
02:34We are on our values.
02:36I am very happy for the team.
02:38I am very happy for the Moroccan fans.
02:40We have 99% of the World Cup qualifiers.
02:44In addition to the national team coach,
02:46who spoke in a press conference a few moments ago,
02:49several players stopped in front of the journalists
02:52to express their feelings after this victory,
02:54which was a bit tricky against Tanzania.
02:56I let you listen to their reaction in the mixed zone.
03:00It was a really weird match.
03:02Because they played in a very low block the whole match.
03:04So we tried to find solutions to score.
03:07I think we played well.
03:09The attitude of the team played positively in the game.
03:11I appreciated that.
03:13Very happy because we won.
03:15And that's what we want.
03:16Win, win and win again.
03:19Of course, all the signs are green for the Africa Cup of Nations.
03:22With our supporters and our families present here.
03:24It will be wonderful.
03:26Because here the supporters are really incredible.
03:28We are so happy because we are going to play at home.
03:31You know, when we play at home,
03:33it's as if we had an advantage of a log.
03:35Because the Moroccan public continues to support us.
03:37And that helps us a lot.
03:39We have a lot of quality in this team.
03:41And we are going to improve more and more
03:43to be in our best shape possible at the Africa Cup.
03:47The most important thing was to take the three points
03:49and to get closer to this qualification
03:51which is almost done for the World Cup 2026.
03:53And that's it, to play a new World Cup,
03:55Inshallah, in 2026.
03:57From now on, we are going to focus on the Côte d'Azur.
03:59As I said, we have finished the World Cup qualification.
04:02And in June, we are going to play friendly matches.
04:04And we are going to use these matches to prepare ourselves
04:06for the Cannes at home, Inshallah,
04:08to do great things.
04:09Of course, we are all hungry.
04:11We all know why we play.
04:13We all know that the supporters are behind us.
04:15And we need them.
04:17Because we are not going to do it alone.
04:19We need everyone, all the Moroccans,
04:21in Morocco and abroad.
04:23We need everyone to achieve something good, Inshallah.
04:26Congratulations to all of us.
04:28We must not forget that tonight,
04:30we are qualified for the World Cup,
04:32for the third time in a row.
04:34I saw that the public was a little disappointed
04:36with the performance.
04:38But what do you want me to tell you?
04:40We must not forget that there is the World Cup at stake,
04:42that the opposing team also played all its cards.
04:44But I am happy, proud of my teammates,
04:46of the technical staff, of the coach too,
04:48who has our full confidence.
04:50I hope that the Moroccan audience
04:52will continue to support us,
04:54so that we are hand in hand.
04:56We have finished the World Cup mission.
04:58We are now turning to Cannes.
05:00Today I am lucky.
05:02I played competitions with my national team.
05:04I have never seen a competition
05:06in which we played
05:08and in which the Moroccan audience
05:10was not worried and did not want to see us win.
05:12It is demanding with us.
05:14We are aware of that.
05:16I am the first one.
05:18I am aware of the responsibilities.
05:20I would like to say that people
05:22of this team, whether they are happy or frustrated,
05:24the Moroccan audience will always be behind us.
05:26I am sure of that.
05:28Let's not forget that the Africa Cup
05:30will be played at home with our audience.
05:32Personally, I am not afraid.
05:34I hope that everyone will be in the same state of mind.
05:38Concerning our team,
05:40we have great players.
05:42Each opponent who comes to face us
05:44gives everything to beat us
05:46and show a good level on the field.
05:48It is not easy to have this status.
05:50We still have a lot of work to do
05:52to correct our mistakes
05:54and our weaknesses.
05:56Thank God, we were at the same level
05:58in this meeting and congratulations to us
06:00for the qualification.
06:04And in the other results to remember
06:06from yesterday's qualification
06:08for the World Cup in Africa,

06:20In Group A, Egypt took the lead
06:22at home against Sierra Leone
06:24with a goal from Zizo
06:26enough to allow the Pharaohs
06:28to keep their lead of 5 points
06:30on their dolphin Burkina Beche.
06:32The Comoros, who will face Morocco
06:34in the opening match of the Cannes 2025

07:00of Algeria against Mozambique

07:10While it was planned to organize
07:12the Africa Cup of Football Nations
07:14the Ivory Coast finally decided
07:16to withdraw through a statement
07:18of its federation.
07:20FIFA made official yesterday
07:22its resignation as PEO
07:24of the competition to the Secretary-General
07:26of the African Football Confederation
07:28in accordance with the instructions
07:30of the President of the Ivorian Football Institute.
07:32The President wants to express
07:34his deep gratitude to everyone
07:36for his commitment and the work done
07:38within the framework of the organization
07:40of this competition, reassuring
07:42everyone about the future
07:44of this competition.
07:46The Ivorian Football Federation
07:48stated that the U-20 Cup
07:50was to be played in the country
07:52of the Elephants on April 26th
07:54or only one week after
07:56the end of the U-17 Cup
07:58which will be played in Morocco
08:00from March 30th to April 19th.
08:02At the Monumental Stadium
08:04in Buenos Aires
08:06the champions of Argentina
08:08without Lionel Messi or Lautaro Martinez
08:10gave Brazilian players
08:12a football lesson last night.
08:14The final score was 4-1.
08:16Brazil is now fourth
08:18in the World Cup
08:20with 10 points ahead of its opponent.
08:22The players of Lionel Scaloni
08:24opened the score from the 5th minute
08:26after a service from Thiago Almeida
08:28to Julián Alvarez
08:30which was played by Guilherme Arana
08:32and Murillo.
08:34The Argentine team continued
08:36with a pass from Nahuel Molina
08:38which was conceded by Chelsea midfielder
08:40Ernzo Fernandes.
08:42Without any debate
08:44with a fantastic midfield
08:46where the duo Joelinton-André
08:48struggled to score
08:50Brazil managed to reduce the score
08:52with Matus Cunha
08:54which was rewarded
08:56by Cristiano Romero.
08:58It will be the only lightning
09:00of the Seleccion
09:02humiliated by a third goal
09:04scored by Liverpool midfielder
09:06because Brazil had never conceded
09:08four goals in an eliminatory campaign
09:10and never the Seleccion
09:12had been humiliated by the Albiceleste
09:14since a comeback in 1964
09:16against Argentina.
09:22The trend seems to be confirmed.
09:24Trent Alexander-Arnold
09:26will leave Liverpool this summer
09:28to join Real Madrid for free
09:30according to the Spanish daily Marca.
09:32The Englishman wants to join Madrid
09:34Sky Sports confirm that the right-back
09:36at the end of his contract with the Reds
09:38wants to join the Casablanca.
09:40Discussions progress between
09:42the TAA and the Meringues
09:44to find an agreement
09:46for his free arrival this summer
09:48but it is not the case yet.
09:50The English media assures that
09:52no agreement has been found yet.
09:54There are still many details to be settled
09:56including the prize for the signing
09:58the rights to the image and other prizes.
10:00Sky Sports specifies that there is no guarantee
10:02of his signing with Real Madrid
10:04but that all this is in good faith
10:06and that he should wear
10:08the Meringue jersey next year
10:10except for the last-minute situation.
10:14Tennis now.
10:16The Belarusian Arina Sabalenka
10:18has held her rank by winning
10:20against the Chinese Jiang Qiwen
10:22in 2-7. Final score 6-2, 7-5
10:24in 1 hour and 37 minutes
10:26for the quarter-finals of the WTA 1000
10:28in Miami. The number one
10:30player of the year this night
10:32and her 6th win in so many matches
10:34against the Olympic champion in Paris
10:36last summer. She also took the opportunity
10:38to reach the last square of the
10:40Floridian tournament for the second
10:42time in her career only.
10:44In the semi-finals, Belarus will have to
10:46face the Italian Jasmine Paolini
10:48number 7 world and runner-up
10:50of the Polish Magdalenet in 2-7.
10:52Final score 6-4 in each of the
10:54matches. An opponent that the
10:56leader of the women's circuit has already
10:58faced 3 times in 5 direct matches.
11:00The last time was last November
11:02in the finals in Saudi Arabia.
11:10And for the men, the Serbian Novak Djokovic
11:12has found the quarter-finals of the
11:14Masters 1000 in Miami after a
11:16Tuesday marked by bad weather.
11:18The Floridian tournament has been
11:20interrupted for about 3 hours and a half
11:22by the rain which has upset the
11:24program. The other matches
11:26have taken place normally.
11:28After the rain, Novak Djokovic has
11:30triumphed against the Italian Lorenzo
11:32Mussetti in 2-7, 6-2 in each
11:34at 37 years old. The Serbian
11:36number 5 world finds
11:38feelings in Miami after being eliminated
11:40at the opening of Doha in February
11:42and then at Indian Wells in California.
11:44The Serbian had not reached the quarter-finals
11:46of the Floridian tournament since
11:482016 and has only 3 matches
11:50to win the 100th trophy
11:52of his career. He will face
11:54the American Sébastien Cordard
11:56in the quarter-finals.
12:02We finish with basketball.
12:04The bad boy Jimmy Butler has returned
12:06to Miami after the tense period
12:08that had led to his departure at
12:10Golden State in February and has
12:12suffered a heavy defeat in front of
12:14his former fans. The motivated and
12:16committed hit has corrected the
12:18Warriors 112-86 in the wake
12:20of an excellent Bama Debaio
12:22with 27 points and 8 rebounds.
12:24If Jimmy Butler had wanted
12:26to hurt his former team,
12:28who is believed to have been mistreated
12:30by the Floridian leaders,
12:32he could not show it with a discreet
12:34match, only 11 points and 6 rebounds.
12:36In the rankings, Miami
12:38comforts its 10th place in the East Conference
12:40qualifying for the play-in.
12:42On his side, Golden State remains
12:446th in the West Conference
12:46but could see the Los Angeles Clippers
12:48chip their place in case of
12:50a bad dynamic of the San Francisco franchise
12:52deprived of Stephen Curry and Seth Meeks.
12:58This is the end of this edition of Maxi-Sport.
13:00Thank you all for following it.
13:02Have a good rest of the program.
13:04This is Mediapolis.
