00:00Hello everyone, welcome to Média1TV for Maxi-Sport, your sports news show.
00:18Morocco holds its 14th place in the international football federation,
00:23whose latest update has been published today.
00:26With the absence of Trèves International since the last version released at the end of November,
00:30the national team led by Wael Dredegui holds the first place on the African scale,
00:35with a little more than 1,688 points ahead of Senegal, which occupies the 17th place on the world scale.
00:41The national football team also retains the first place on the Arab scale,
00:45of which Egypt occupies the second position, with its 33rd place on the world scale.
00:50On the international scale, Argentina is still ahead of the FIFA rankings,
00:54followed by France and Spain.
00:56The big loser is Belgium, 8th, which lost two places at the end of November,
01:00surpassed by Portugal and the Netherlands.
01:03Germany made its return to the top 10 in place of Colombia, and remains so until the end of 2024.
01:10And 2-2 for Real Madrid.
01:12The Spanish club outclassed the Mexican club of Pachuca by 3-0 in the final of the Intercontinental Cup,
01:18which took place last night at the Stade Luceil de Doha.
01:21Real Madrid's goals were scored by Kylian Mbappé, Rodrigo and Vinicius Jr. on penalties,
01:26after being decisive passers-by on the first goal, which was scored by the Frenchman.
01:30The Spanish capital club had already dominated Atalanta-Bergam to win the European Super Cup in August,
01:36with this second trophy won once again in a single match.
01:40The Meringues are reassured after a start of the season mined by injuries and the search for a new animation.
01:46The Mexican formation of Pachuca, who fell from the Botafogo in my quarter-final,
01:50and from El Ejlis at the Tirobuche session after a bad match in the semi-final,
01:55during an additional round that they had to dispute,
01:58had started the game very well, creating several dangerous situations.
02:02But against Real, when you don't score, it pays off.
02:06That's it, there was a revenge to take at this stadium.
02:08We are happy to have been able to win this match.
02:11We did a good match, we managed to score goals, we didn't concede.
02:15We gave everything until the end, so we are happy to start with a new trophy.
02:19Yes, it was good, I think we played well.
02:21It can always be better, but I think it's a good win to win this tournament,
02:25and we are happy with the trophy.
02:28Paris Saint-Germain went to beat Monaco on the pitch of Stade Louis II,
02:31four goals to two, and brought their lead to 10 points ahead of the league,
02:35in the context of an advanced match of the 16th day of Ligue 1,
02:38before facing Doha in early January for the Champions Trophy.
02:42At the end of the match, both teams went head-to-head,
02:45with the opening goal scored by Desiré Doué at the 24th minute,
02:49well served by the Moroccan international Achraf Hakimi.
02:53His compatriot Monegasque, Elias Bounsrel, then equalised after the break
02:57on a penalty provoked by Marquinhos' hand, before the attack in Switzerland.
03:01Breel Embolo gives the lead to the lead.
03:04Yes, but Ousmane Dembele, Gonçalo Ramos, then again Ousmane Dembele,
03:08gave the club the last word and brought their lead to 10 points
03:13ahead of Monégasque and Marseillais,
03:15with the Olympique de Marseille still having a match to play in a month
03:19to reduce the gap with the French champion in the lead to 7 points.
03:25In England, now leading the Premier League and the Champions League,
03:28Liverpool extended their almost perfect start to the season
03:31on the Southampton pitch, despite the honourable resistance
03:34of the Champions League red flag, with a 2-1 score in the quarter-finals
03:38of the English League Cup.
03:40A big 30 minutes after the kick-off, Liverpool were 2-0 up
03:44thanks to the Uruguayan striker Darwin Nunez,
03:47who had scored only once in his last 11 games,
03:50and the former injured player Harvey Elliott,
03:52who was starting for the first time this season.
03:54Southampton didn't give up, however,
03:56and their tenacity was rewarded by Cameron Archer,
04:00a goal scorer at half-time.
04:02The first goal made the Reds doubt their chances,
04:05but they managed to create an opportunity,
04:07a match in which Arne Slott took the opportunity
04:10to give the academy's players time to show what they're capable of
04:14in front of an elite team.
04:16The final score was 1-1.
04:20We have already had a few starting players from our academy,
04:23and when we see these players training with us every day,
04:26we know their qualities, and it's good to see what they show
04:29in front of a Premier League team,
04:31and that they can easily play at this level.
04:33The problem for them is that it's not about playing easily,
04:36but rather about competing with Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk,
04:39and all the other players of this kind.
04:41It's not enough to be good enough to play at this level,
04:44you have to be good enough to play at Liverpool,
04:46and that's probably the next step they have to go through.
04:49But they've shown today that they're capable of playing
04:52at the level of the Premier League, that's for sure.
04:55Just outside of the Premier League, Arsenal had a bad start.
04:58Their quarter-final against Crystal Palace at the Emirates,
05:01where Mikel Arteta had lined up a team
05:03with the usual starting players and substitutes.
05:05Defender Jakub Kiwior, a member of the second division,
05:08missed out on a long free kick from Dean Anderson,
05:11the Eagles' goalkeeper, and Jean-Philippe Mateta,
05:13the French striker, exploited the mistake
05:15with no hesitation from the fourth minute of the game.
05:18The Gunners dominated the rest of the game,
05:20but we can hear that they had a hard time
05:22turning the game around to their advantage.
05:24Gabriel Jesus, the hat-trick hero,
05:26had to make an improbable three-pointer,
05:28as the Emirates' speaker called it,
05:30to turn the game around.
05:32The one who had scored only once this season
05:34equalised with a subtle piqué,
05:36before making his quality of a finisher speak
05:38on Bukayo Saka and Martino Deguard's
05:40offer in the last 15 minutes,
05:42both of whom came on during the game.
05:44His coach, Mikel Arteta, was proud of that,
05:46as he praised him in a press conference
05:48after the game.
05:51I'm so pleased for him.
05:53It's obvious that he hasn't scored in a long time,
05:55and today he scored a three-pointer,
05:57with the three types of goals he scored,
05:59and the many actions he was involved in.
06:01He looked very excited.
06:03I think it's a good thing for him,
06:05a good thing for the team as well,
06:07that we can count on a player of this quality.
06:09It's the same for Kieran Tierney,
06:11and for all the players who haven't started
06:13a lot of games this season,
06:15and today they had the chance to do it tonight.
06:17Yes, he brings something.
06:19He has a quality, a way of creating,
06:21of creating situations that are
06:23completely unique at this level.
06:25Gabi is a major asset for us.
06:29Wembley is coming up for Tottenham
06:31and Manchester United.
06:33The two members of the Big Six will
06:35meet tonight at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
06:37in the quarter-finals of the English League Cup.
06:39For both teams, the hope of
06:41finding a final in the inter-London
06:43has grown. In the previous round,
06:45the Spurs dropped a prestigious qualification
06:47to Manchester City,
06:49which contrasts with their
06:51early season in the Premier League.
06:53The players of the Australian coach
06:55Ange Postekoglou are only
06:57in 10th place in the standings,
06:59a situation reminiscent of their
07:01opponent tonight. The Red Devils
07:03are 13th, far from the expectations
07:05of the start of the season,
07:07but since the arrival of the Portuguese
07:09coach Ruben Amorim, the Mancunians
07:11are doing better and remain
07:13on a convincing 2-1 lead against
07:15Manchester United.
07:17The Red Devils, who were
07:19eliminated in the round of 16
07:21by Newcastle last season,
07:23have also qualified for the semi-finals
07:25of the English League Cup,
07:27beating Brentford by 3-1.
07:29The French international
07:31from FC Barcelona,
07:33Jules Koundé, was the most
07:35used football player in the world
07:37in 2024, with a total of 69 games
07:39to date, according to a study
07:41by the International Centre for Sports
07:43in the context of calendar overload.
07:45Koundé, a 26-year-old
07:47midfielder who has been
07:49on the right wing for several years
07:51at Barça and at Les Bleus,
07:53dominates the standings,
07:55both in the number of games
07:57and in the number of minutes.
07:59Indeed, you play 5,872,
08:01nearly 300 minutes ahead of the second
08:03in the standings, John Arias
08:05of the Brazilian club Fluminense,
08:07with his 67 games. The Frenchman
08:09could even reach 70 games this Saturday
08:11Atlético de Madrid, co-leader
08:13of the league, for the last day
08:15of La Liga in 2024.
08:17Uruguayan from Real Madrid,
08:19Federico Valverde, completes the podium
08:21with his 66 games. The issue
08:23of calendar overload has become
08:25prevalent since the start of the season,
08:27with the new formulas of the Champions League
08:29and the Club World Cup bringing
08:31more games, to the point that players
08:33and their representatives regularly
08:35ring the alarm bell, like the last
08:37Ballon d'Or Rodri, which mentioned
08:39the players' strike before getting injured
08:41for a long time, with a broken
08:43knee ligament.
08:45After the quintuple Ballon d'Or,
08:47Cristiano Ronaldo, it's time
08:49for the Moroccan goalkeeper
08:51to speak. The World Cup
08:532030, which awaits Morocco
08:55alongside Portugal and Spain,
08:57three countries, two continents and one vision,
08:59Yalla Vamos 2030, a World Cup
09:01that unites cultures,
09:03celebrates diversity and
09:05will leave a legacy for the next century,
09:07together, for football, for the world,
09:09for tomorrow, let's write history together.
09:11Yalla Vamos has declared
09:13Yassine Bounou on a video published
09:15by social networks of the Ibero-Moroccan
09:17candidacy, plus Iberico-Moroccan,
09:19several big names in Spanish football,
09:21Portuguese and Moroccan,
09:23have already spoken on the official account
09:25of Yalla Vamos 2030
09:27to support the common file
09:29and celebrate the international holiday
09:31that awaits these three countries in a little less
09:33than six years.
09:35The Mexican driver
09:37Sergio Pérez will no longer be
09:39driving a Red Bull single-seater
09:41in Formula 1 next season,
09:43this is what the Austrian journalists
09:45announced by revealing
09:47who will be the future teammate
09:49of the quadruple world champion
09:51Dutch Max Verstappen,
09:53it will be the New Zealand Liam Lawson
09:55who had replaced the Australian Daniel Ricciardo
09:57at Racing Bulls, Red Bull's little sister,
09:59for the last six Grand Prix of this season
10:01since it was he who was chosen
10:03as the world vice-champion last year
10:05and finished only eighth this season,
10:07which precipitated his fall
10:09after four podiums
10:11during the first five races,
10:13he then fell irrevocably
10:15in the rankings. The Mexican will have
10:17disputed 90 Grand Prix,
10:19dropped 29 podiums and won
10:21five of the six victories
10:23that his Palmares counts
10:25during the last four seasons
10:27as Verstappen's Red Bull teammate.
10:29This Wednesday,
10:31the Frenchman Arthur Fyss
10:33bowed to his Brazilian cadet
10:35João Fonseca,
10:37as young as Prometheus
10:39and who had beaten him
10:41at the Rio de Janeiro tournament
10:43in 577 times,
10:45with four games,
10:473-4, 4-2, 4-1,
10:491-4, 4-1,
10:51ranked 145th in the world,
10:53Fyss being 20th in the ATP rankings,
10:55the Brazilian managed to show
10:57the loss of this very disputed first set
10:59and concluded on a tie-break
11:01where the two players had chances.
11:03Fonseca stayed in his meeting
11:05and dropped the next two sets
11:07to take control of the duel.
11:09A very bad game on his part
11:11allowed Fyss to restart the debates
11:13in the fourth act,
11:15but this jump did not last
11:17to protect him from Sébastien Grosjean
11:19who gave up in the last round.
11:21Here he is, badly embarked
11:23at the end of this first day
11:25to qualify, Lucas Valhach
11:27was victorious
11:29against the Chinese Sheng Junsheng
11:31in four games.
11:35Several Moroccan ex-internationals
11:37will participate in 2025
11:39in the competition of the moment
11:41that defies the rules of football,

11:45In a World Cup format,
11:47in the group led by the former goalkeeper
11:49converted to coach Magid Lerkhal,
11:51we find the former captain of the Lions of Atlas,
11:53Marc Boussofa, and his teammate
11:55in the Moroccan national team,
11:57Nabil Dirar, with whom he had
11:59played in the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
12:01These two former players are considered
12:03as the key players of this selection
12:05by the organization of other former
12:07personalities of the Botola
12:09following their appearance in the list,
12:11such as the former Raja Casablanca players
12:13Zachary Ahdref and Essam Raqi,
12:15or the ex-Ouidadist and
12:17diffuse Mohamed Nahiri.
12:19Note also the presence of the Moroccan
12:21goalkeeper of 39 years,
12:23Amine El Bourghadi,
12:25still under contract with the Moghreb of Fez.
12:27The World Cup of Nations,
