Former coach of Moroccan national team Hassan Mo'men expressed his frustration over Morocco's surprise loss before Congo during the first round of Africa Cup, saying, "We deserved to achieve better score,as we dominated the match and created great opportunities to score goals, while we failed to seize them."

He added that the Congolese team seized the opportunity they had during the whole match, stressing that their goal strongly affected the Moroccan players.

He added that the playing style adopted by the Moroccan national team witnessed notable change, as they depended on long balls that were intercepted by the Congolese players  due to their tallness.

He stressed that the Moroccan national team lacks the playmaker who can make difference, like Sofian Nodal who enjoyed special skills.
