In the post-match press conference, Ouahbi stated, “It was a different match from the one against Ecuador. We had to find natural connections and adapt to the opponent.”

Ouahbi underscored the importance of learning from each match without rushing to conclusions. “I am not going to draw all the conclusions right away.

The head coach also discussed his strategy of bringing a larger squad, knowing that not all players would have the opportunity to play. “I am very happy with the group. The best and highest-performing players will be selected to take part in the World Cup,” Ouahbi commented. He insisted on maintaining a balance between ambition and humility, stating, “We want to have a lot of ambition, but also a lot of humility. Expectations are high for us following our recent performances.”
