Morocco's defender Saiss: We bid farewell to the World Cup but eyeing the bronze trophy!

Morocco captain Romain Saiss indicated that he was disappointed after the World Cup semi-final exit by France on Wednesday, but gestured no regrets. France scored an early goal via Theo Hernandez. The exit became easier when Romain Saiss and Naseer Mazraoui, due to injury in the first half, joined Nayef Akrad, who was excluded from the starting line-up before the game even, starts. Randall Kolo Mwani made the qualification signal for the defending champion when he scored 11 minutes from the match end. France will play Argentina in the final at Lusail Stadium on Sunday in order to battle the third title for either. "We are disappointed with the result. We wanted to win like all the previous matches, but that did not happen," Saiss told the Al-Kass Sports Channel. "We are proud of what has been achieved, we still have the third-place match against Croatia, and we have no regrets. We played despite the injuries; thank God we reached this level and achieved an achievement. We could have achieved the best, and we will strive to get third place." He added, "We have high skills, good players in the best clubs and tournaments, and this made the difference, we have an exceptional group spirit, which helped us reach this level." "What we presented was good, but we want to take advantage of that for the future, and we will compete in other continental and international tournaments in search of titles." Morocco will play Croatia on Saturday for the third and fourth places at Khalifa International Stadium. Saiss was optimistic about the future of the Moroccan national team.
