00:00The President of the Moroccan Royal Football Federation, Faouzi Larger, received his counterpart Rafael Loussane yesterday,
00:27who made an official visit to Morocco after his recent election at the head of the Spanish institution.
00:33In the context of this meeting, the head of the Royal Football Federation emphasized the importance of this visit
00:38to point out the preparations of the joint organization of the World Cup 2030 between Morocco, Spain and Portugal,
00:45highlighting the historical and cultural links that unite Morocco and Spain,
00:50while also emphasizing the need to accelerate the implementation of joint commissions between the three countries
00:56in order to guarantee a successful organization of the World Cup 2030 after the great success of the candidacy file.
01:03On his part, Rafael Loussane explained and expressed his gratitude to Faouzi Larger for the warm welcome he was given,
01:11as well as to the delegation that accompanies him.
01:15Still in the kingdom, the national women's football team continues its preparation at the Mohamed 6 complex in Maamoura
01:21as part of an internship that will end on February 25.
01:25As a reminder, Atlas Lions coach Jorge Vilda Rodriguez has scheduled two friendly matches,
01:31which will mainly be tests.
01:32It will be against Ghana on February 21 and then against Haiti four days later.
01:38Two matches planned at the Pergego stadium in Casablanca at 6 p.m. Moroccan time.
01:43These meetings will allow the Spanish team to make the necessary technical adjustments
01:48for the next international events,
01:50including the 15th edition of the African Nations Cup, which will take place in the kingdom for the second time in a row.
01:57As a reminder, the Atlas Lions were hoisted until the final of the last edition,
02:02before leaning on the last step against South Africa in the summer of 2022.
02:08The national team of the under-17s was hoisted by Egypt last night,
02:14during the first day of the international tournament organized by the Moroccan Royal Football Federation.
02:20Final score 0-0.
02:22The match was played at the Mohamed 6 football complex,
02:26where the two teams showed solid defensive organization,
02:30but without being able to break through the opponent's defense.
02:33The Lions will face the Senegal, winning 5-0 against Gambia.
02:38A big challenge for the men of Nabil Beha,
02:41who will aim to beat this formidable Senegalese team to go for the first place in the rankings.
02:49From Mercato, Youssef Nseiri is once again in the sights of Kador Anglais.
02:54According to Turkish press, Manchester United and Arsenal will be on the trail of the Moroccan international,
03:00who are having a remarkable season with Fenerbahce,
03:03with 23 goals in all mixed competitions this season,
03:07including 15 in the Turkish Super League.
03:09Nseiri had already been linked to a transfer to the Premier League for much of his time in Seville.
03:15It was on West Ham's side, the team most often mentioned,
03:18but the player had apparently rejected.
03:21The Hammers had at least one chance before joining the Stambouliot formation,
03:26a cheque of 38 million from Saudi Arabia from Al-Nasr.
03:30However, an offer from British giants such as United or the Gunners
03:35could push the club to consider a departure of its striker if that comes to fruition.
03:44We open a page, Champions League.
03:46The surprise of the evening came from San Siro,
03:49especially at the beginning of the evening,
03:51as AC Milan didn't manage to turn things around.
03:54Against Feyenoord, the Champions League was back in action,
03:57conceding a 1-0 draw after their defeat at La Liga.
04:01However, it only took 37 seconds for AC Milan to get back to winning ways.
04:06Thanks to the Mexican striker Santiago Jimenez,
04:09the winter break came from Feyenoord,
04:12but Sergio Concessão's players regretted not doubling up before the break,
04:17because shortly after the break,
04:19they found themselves down to 10 after the expulsion of the French side,
04:23for a second yellow card following an avoidable simulation.
04:27Rotterdam found energy and inspiration again,
04:31as did Diego Bueno for the head of the Argentinian side,
04:34Julien Carranza, who didn't give Mike Maignan a chance.
04:38Two goals, one score.
04:40The Bataves eliminated the Rossoneri against all odds,
04:43and went on to the quarter-finals.
04:48You can say that the referee was too harsh on us.
04:52We have to be stronger emotionally and mentally,
04:55but this failure is my responsibility,
04:58not that of Théo Hernandez or anyone else.
05:01I am responsible.
05:03After all this, we will discuss internally,
05:05and we will take our responsibilities in the dressing room,
05:08for the outside world in any case.
05:10I am the one who is responsible for this defeat,
05:12because Théo has already given so much for Milan.
05:14I made mistakes as a player and as a coach in my career,
05:17and I still do.
05:19So we are annoyed by the situation,
05:21and I am not here to pretend that nothing happened,
05:23because until the red card,
05:25the players of Feyenoord were not threatening.
05:27We were in a hurry, we were aggressive as a team,
05:30and many of our sequences caused them problems.
05:33We had chances to score a second goal,
05:35even a third, but it didn't go as planned.
05:38And after this episode that escaped us,
05:40it unfortunately went like that.
05:42We are really disappointed and angry.
05:51A week after his win at the Allee,
05:53Bayern Munich avoided the disaster at home,
05:56with a draw.
05:58A goal everywhere after his 2-1 win at the Allee,
06:00because after missing four chances in the first period,
06:03Nicolas Kuhn took advantage of a mistake
06:06by the Korean central defender Kim Min Jae,
06:09to give the advantage to the Scottish champions
06:11just after half-time.
06:13The visitors nearly held out
06:15for another 30 minutes,
06:17but Davies managed to score
06:19after Leon Goretzka
06:21scored on the goalkeeper Danouar Kasper Schmeichel
06:24at the end of the game.
06:26The Canadian left-back scored at the 4th minute
06:28of the extra time,
06:30to allow Bayern to qualify
06:32at the expense of the Celtic,
06:34who had been together for more than 30 minutes,
06:36to be able to extend the game.
06:38We have always talked about the number of games
06:41we have to play in six days.
06:43It's simple.
06:45The first half could have been better.
06:47On the other hand,
06:49the second half was good.
06:51We had chances
06:53and we could have scored more goals.
06:55But we had to get back to our mentality
06:57and it's not really easy to get out of it.
06:59It's not easy to get out of it.
07:01It's not easy to get out of it.
07:03It's not easy to get out of it.
07:05It's not easy to get out of it.
07:07It's not easy to get out of it.
07:09It's not easy to get out of it.
07:11It's not easy to get out of it.
07:13The way to get out of it
07:15doesn't really matter.
07:17We gave everything
07:19on the pitch.
07:21Now we have one or two more days
07:23before playing in Frankfurt
07:25against Eintracht.
07:27I fully understand the question
07:29and I have to put it back in its context
07:31when the calendar is full.
07:33It is important to get the right result
07:35and to achieve a good performance on the pitch, of course.
07:45On the Portuguese side, it was a Greek-Turkish alliance that allowed Benfica to qualify for the quarter-finals
07:52at the end of a thrilling match in Lisbon against AS Monaco.
07:56The final score was 3-0 and 4-3.
07:59Kerem Aktokturoglu's powerful shot in the middle of the first period
08:05gave the Japanese side Takumi Minamino the lead
08:09and the Moroccan international Elias Bonserel replicated it from time to time
08:14to equalise for AS Monaco.
08:16The penalty, transformed cold-blooded by the Greek striker Vangelis Pavlidis,
08:21gave the Eagles the lead, with a cumulative score,
08:24before the replacement, Georges-Eleni Kenard, scored less than a minute after the start of the game
08:29and as the extra time was running out,
08:32Orkun Koşkuş managed to take back Alvarez Carreras' centre-back
08:36just over ten minutes from the end of the match
08:39to send the Benfica players to the next round of the competition.
08:45We finish in Italy.
08:47This is the Champions League stage, the debut of the Belgian-Moroccan Shams Dintalbi.
08:51In the first 27 minutes, they managed to reach the round of 16
08:56with a 3-1 win over Atalanta-Bergam,
09:00and a 5-2 win.
09:02Davide Sabagosta found the post for Atalanta
09:06after the 19-year-old's double.
09:08But the exceptional shot from the former FC Barcelona striker Ferran Dugla
09:12from outside the penalty area
09:14gave the visitors a 3-0 lead.
09:18Ademola Lukman, the African golden ball,
09:20then led the second half on his own.
09:22Reduction of the score,
09:24a rejected goal and a missed penalty,
09:26pushed back by Simon Mignolet.
09:28The captain's expulsion, Rafael Toloi,
09:30allowed the Belgians to finish the job
09:33and qualify for the round of 16
09:36of the Grands Oreilles Cup.
09:40From a Champions League page to a tennis page
09:43for his first game as a simple since his injury at the Australian Open.
09:46Novak Djokovic took a 2-7 lead
09:49against Matteo Berrettini
09:51in the first round of the ATP 500
09:53by Doha, 7-6, 6-2.
09:55The world's number 7
09:57seemed to be in good shape
09:59in this first round.
10:01Solid on his midfield,
10:03he was trapped by the offensive velocity
10:05of his Italian opponent,
10:07very aggressive on the Serbian's second services.
10:09Taking advantage of his big frame
10:11and his first shots after 220 km per hour,
10:13the Italian left no chance
10:15for the former world's number 1
10:17to come back to the scoreboard
10:19to get his first win against the Serbs.
10:21In double against Fernando Verdasco
10:23who will put an end to his career
10:25at the end of this week,
10:27Djokovic took the lead
10:29in the first round
10:31against Bublik Kashanov.
10:36On the Brazilian side,
10:38the Frenchman Alexandre Muller
10:40dominated the 18-year-old Brazilian hope.
10:42João Fonseca,
10:44who won the ATP 500 tournament
10:46in Rio de Janeiro
10:48in 2-7, 6-1, 7-6.
10:50For Fonseca,
10:52who became the 10th youngest player
10:54to win an ATP tournament
10:56since 1990,
10:58the pressure to play at home
11:00was too great.
11:02The 28-year-old Frenchman
11:04said to himself
11:06that he was sorry for the tournament
11:08and for Brazil for eliminating
11:10his home team.
11:12Still on the ground,
11:14the German Alexander Zverev,
11:16the tournament's favourite,
11:18suffered against the Chinese
11:20Yan Chaokote Bu,
11:22the 69th world's number 2
11:24and the competition's number 1.
11:26He won in two rounds,
11:287-6, 6-4,
11:30against the Kazakh Alexander Shevchenko
11:32in the round of 16.
11:36A few hours later,
11:38his great rival,
11:40Fonseca, also won
11:42the WTA 1000 World Cup
11:44in Dubai,
11:46against the number 1
11:48Batush in the final
11:50of the Australian Open.
11:52Since then,
11:54Fonseca has been playing
11:56against the 50th
