The Moroccan football team participated successfully in the seventeenth edition of the Mediterranean Games, taking place in Missrin in Turkey. The Moroccan team managed to?secure the gold medal on Thursday, after it won the match against the host country?s national team via penalties. The match ended in a tie of 2-2 and the winner was then decided by penalty kicks.
The Moroccan national team, made up of players under 20, attained the same medal in Casablanca in 1983 when it won the match against the same team, Turkey, 3-0. This new achievement was due to the hard work and determination of the local coach Hassan Benaabicha, along with a group of players from the local league.
Moroccan player Hicham Kheloua, who plyas in Spain, scored in the first minute. Soon after in the thirteenth minute, the Turkish team managed to equalize. In the twenty-sixth minute, the Turkish team scored again and was close to winning the match before Adam Nefani, who plays in France, managed to tie the score. With the score 2-2, the two teams resorted to penalties, which turned in favor of Morocco.
