U20 World Cup: Yassir Zabiri takes a swipe at Argentina after Morocco's triumph

A key architect of Morocco’s victory in the U20 World Cup final, Yassir Zabiri spoke out at the final whistle. Zabiri, who netted a brace and was the undisputed hero of the final at the Julio Martínez Prádanos National Stadium in Santiago, Chile, was visibly emotional as he addressed the media after the match. "The journey was tough and demanding, but we faced every opponent with determination and confidence. I thank God, the King, and the president of the Federation, Fouzi Lekjaa, whose presence gave us a huge boost. I also thank the coach and our supporters, to whom I say: here it is, we’re bringing the trophy home! God never lets down those who work hard." he declared.
