Morocco’s 2-0 win over Lesotho not only secured three points but also allowed Mohamed Ouahbi to test players and adjust his lineup, with the coach expressing satisfaction with his squad’s overall performance.
The Atlas Lions head coach particularly appreciated the composure displayed against a tightly organized opponent. In his view, the playing conditions required great technical precision to break through the Lesotho defense.
“We have the six points that’s important. The goal was to get off to a good start. Of course, there are many positives, as well as areas where we still need to improve and make progress. We’re satisfied with the trip,” he said in comments reported by Le 360 Sport.
Beyond the result, this match is part of a broader strategy for Ouahbi. The upcoming matches should allow Morocco to continue its progress, give playing time to deserving players, and experiment with certain options.
Having already defeated Gabon (2-0) on the first matchday, the Moroccans now have six points after two matchdays. For their head coach, the key will be to maintain the same level of focus, regardless of the opponent.
