Match Schedule:
Morocco vs. Serbia
World Friendly Match
Date: 23 March 2018;
Time: 20:30
Venue: Stadio Olimpico
Grande Torino (Torino)
This is a very good test for the men of Hervé Renard who will
also play Uzbekistan in a friendly Tuesday, 27th March. As a
reminder, the Lions of the Atlas find the most beautiful competitions after
twenty years of absence; will have a huge challenge in Russia, since they will
be opposed to Iran, Portugal and Spain.
The match against
the Serbs, led by Alexander Kolarov
(AS Roma) and Nemanja Matic (Manchester United), should allow the coach to
gauge his team on the physical level to see if his defense is still strong
after a eliminatory phase without having cashed the least goal.
The French technician will also take advantage of this match
to test new players, including the center of the Renaissance Berkane, Ayoub El
Kaabi, best player and scorer of CHAN 2018. National coach Hervé Renard will
hold a press briefing on Thursday, March 22, 2018, at 7.15 pm in the conference
hall of the Turin Olympic Stadium to shed light on the friendly match between Morocco and Serbia scheduled for next Friday as part of the Lions preparation
program.
