Salmi club coach,  Radwan Al-Heimr described the defeat of the Moroccan national team as bitter defeat.

"We did not deserve defeat because we were better throughout the game, but the offensive efficiency was absent from us due to the lack of experience in our strikers, what making them wasting easy chances in the match," Al-Heimr added." The pitch was bad so it is one of the reasons of the defeat", he stated.

Al-Heimr revealed that the Egyptian team has a special relationship with Africa Cup, especially when they cross the first round. "They win without providing any effort, exploiting the competitors' errors intelligently, and this what happened with the Moroccan national team," Al-Heimr said.

Egyptian team will win the African Nations Cup in this session, if a surprise does not occur.
