The Saudi national team coach, the French Hervé Renard, expressed his dissatisfaction and anger after his team's loss to Morocco in the last round of group matches in the Arab Cup.
In a press statement after the match, Renard said: "We did not respect football, and whoever does not respect football loses," expressing his disappointment with the level presented by the Saudi players during the match. The Moroccan national team was able to win with a score of one goal to nil, scored by the player Karim El Berkaoui, thus topping the group and setting a date with the Syrian national team in the next match in the round of 16 of the Arab Cup. This match embodies the importance of discipline and seriousness in the tournament, as the Moroccan national team proved its ability to exploit opportunities and achieve victories in crucial situations, while the Saudi national team will need to review its performance before the next matches.
