  • Intro:

    Granada's Youssef El Arabi, speaks to SNTV about his hopes and dreams for Morocco after an early exit from the African Cup of Nations.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (Arabic): Youssef Al Arabi, Morocco and Granada:
    " We wasted our chances in our first match in the African Cup of Nations against Angola. We managed to draw our second match against Cape Verde. Our third match was a very difficult one against South Africa. It ended in a draw although we played really well. It was the first time for our coach (Rashid Toussi) to lead us in the African Cup of Nations. I trained under him for the last month. I hope we will be able to do better in the future and qualify for the World Cup."

    SOUNDBITE (Arabic): Youssef Al Arabi, Morocco and Granada:
    "Thankfully football is constantly improving and developing in Morocco. We have a crop of good players in the Championship. We have several players in Europe. We have great potential. We will do our best this year in order to qualify for the next World Cup."

    SOUNDBITE (Arabic): Youssef Al Arabi, Morocco and Granada:
    "As for the group matches (Africa's qualification for the World Cup) It is always difficult to play matches away from home. We will do our best to qualify from this group. We have a match against a great team, the Ivory Coast. We also have a match against Tanzania. We faced them twice last year we drew away with them and defeated them at home, but as they say in Africa all the matches are difficult regardless of your opponent."
