Moroccan player Mohamed Zarida, who plays for Libya’s Al-Ittihad, has come under intense criticism from his team’s fans following a heavy defeat against Al-Suwihli, losing 4-1 in a match held last Friday as part of the second round of the first phase of the Libyan league.
Al-Ittihad fans expressed their strong dissatisfaction with Zarida’s performance through social media platforms. He started the match alongside his compatriot Noufal Zarhouni and former Wydad Casablanca player Sidi Boua Amar. Fans felt that Zarida did not provide the expected contribution throughout the match, which contributed to the negative result for the team.
Mohamed Zarida joined Al-Ittihad during the recent winter transfer window from Raja Casablanca, along with compatriot Noufal Zarhouni, with the aim of strengthening the team’s roster. However, the recent performances of both players have raised concerns among fans, who are now demanding improvement in performance and an increase in tactical discipline.
Al-Ittihad currently sits in fourth place in the first phase league standings with four points, trailing Al-Suwihli, who solidified their lead with seven points. The fans are expecting a strong response from the players and coaching staff to correct the course and return to winning ways in the upcoming rounds.
