Statements of Yasser Zubairy, the Moroccan star
Yasser Al-Zubairi said in statements after the match that his country deserved the historic title after all the players presented great performances and high spirits during the matches.
Yasser Zubairy dedicated the World Cup title to King Mohammed VI of Morocco, in addition to the Moroccan fans, his father and his mother.
Yasser Al-Zubairi added: I was hoping that my father and mother would be in Chile while we celebrated the cup, but it was difficult for them to travel.
The Moroccan national team star concluded: We had our say on the field and everyone performed in a high spirit, and the Argentine players talked a lot before the match, but we ate them up on the field.
The Moroccan youth team, led by coach Mohamed Wehbe, was able to win the 2025 World Youth Cup in Chile, in an unprecedented Arab achievement in this age group.
The Moroccan national team became the first Arab team to win the U-20 World Cup title, surpassing the achievement of the Egyptian national team in 2001, led by Shawky Gharib, who won the bronze medal in Argentina.
