During the announcements made by the newspaper“Herald”The former “Liverpool” star from Scotland said about his ambitions to qualify for the next round. “We try not to think too much about it, because we have very difficult problems ahead of us. But I don’t think any of the players or the technical staff have avoided this topic. We want to be the first team to achieve that for our country and it’s a beautiful feeling.”
He continued. “We know how difficult it is. Now we face one of the best teams in the world (Morocco), but we believe we can make any match difficult. If we can do that and show our best game, I think we can achieve what we want.
“The best right defender”.
Ashraf Hakimi, the star of Paris Saint-Germain and the Moroccan national team, said: “I can’t praise him enough. I have great admiration for him and what he is currently doing. So (to face him) will be a difficult task. What a great player, I think he’s the best right-back in the world, with him and Nuno Mendes on the other side.
“We (Liverpool) have played them twice in the last two years, in the Champions League, and both have been phenomenal. They are a joy to watch. Everyone enjoys watching Hakimi, the freedom with which he plays, the way he gets into your space and the next moment comes back to defend his space. So I have a lot of admiration for everything he does. meetings here.”
He said about the general danger of Morocco. “I think they’re all dangerous. That’s the biggest compliment I can give them. I think they’ve got quality everywhere on the pitch, they’re such good players that it’s hard to focus on just one because the other will come and punish you. There is a lot of quality in midfield. “Instead of them picking a team for one or two players, I’m going to say the team will be tough.”
He continued. “They are a great team. There is no reason for them to be any different than they were before. We also believe in the quality we have, we have to believe we can be a tough team. We have to show it on the biggest stage. If we do that, I hope we come out victorious.”
