Walid Regagrui: The objective is to knock out France
Walid Regagrui is looking forward to Morocco's historic semi-final against France:
- It's a great challenge for us. We came up against the last runner-up [Croatia] and third team [Belgium], so practically all the best teams in the world. Now this may be the toughest challenge. We respect them, and we'll give our best, as we've been doing it since the start of the competition, to create an upset because obviously, if we achieve this feat, it will be an upset.
This match is mostly special for my loved ones, family and relatives. It's somehow special for me too, since I'm also French and grew up in France. However, I'm trying to escape this debate and think only about football. I'm the coach of my country, that's up against my second country, so to speak, and the objective is to knock out France. It's a football game, and that's all it is, and in no way does it take away my love for France.
