Tunisian journalist and sports commentator Essam Chawali praised the Moroccan national team for its qualification to the Africa Cup of Nations final, where it will face Senegal in a highly anticipated match that he described as “the last battle in Rabat for the cup.”
In a post shared on his official Facebook account, Chawali congratulated the Moroccan team for reaching the final, stating that this qualification was logical and expected according to majority predictions, considering that both Morocco and Senegal are the best teams on the continent, both in terms of world ranking and their performance in the tournament. They also excelled in the semi-finals against Nigeria and Egypt.
Chawali noted that the final will pit two teams vying for their second continental title against each other, describing the clash between the “lions” as challenging and complex, as is often the case with finals, which are determined by mental and physical readiness, patience, and luck—key elements in such significant encounters.
The Tunisian commentator focused on the strengths of the Moroccan team, highlighting their reliance on the home advantage and a supportive crowd. He praised the “Atlas Lions” for having the strongest defense in the tournament, along with players capable of making a difference at any moment. Conversely, he emphasized the physical strength of the Senegalese team, their tactical evolution, and their noticeable confidence and composure in play.
Chawali concluded his post by emphasizing that small details could decide the final, expressing hope that the Moroccan team would be ready for the final step and succeed in fulfilling the dream of a nation eager for joy and triumph.
