Al-Sheikh published, in a post on his official account on the "X" platform, a congratulatory message in which he said: "I extend my sincere congratulations and blessings to His Majesty King Mohammed VI, may God protect him, and His Royal Highness Crown Prince Moulay El Hassan, and the brotherly Moroccan people on the occasion of the Moroccan youth team's qualification to the World Cup final… Moroccan sport always raises the heads of Arabs high." Al-Sheikh's tweet received wide interaction on the platform, as many Moroccans and Arabs expressed their pride in what the "Atlas Lions" achieved, considering that this qualification embodies the great development that Moroccan football has witnessed in recent years. It is worth mentioning that the Moroccan youth team qualified for the final of the under-20 World Cup after its exciting victory over France in a penalty shootout (5-4), after the original time of the match ended in a tie (1-1).
