Ex-Coach: I Won't Forgive Morocco For Sacking Me Before World Cup

Ex-Coach: I Won't Forgive Morocco For Sacking Me Before World Cup

Coach Vahid Halilhodzic says he will not forgive Morocco for sacking him just months before the FIFA World Cup in Qatar.

Halilhodzic lead the Atlas Lions to the quarter-finals at last year's Africa Cup of Nations and also qualified for the World Cup.

However, the Moroccan Football Association parted ways with Halilhodzic three months before the tournament and revealed that falling out with key players, including Hakim Ziyech was part of the decision.

"You know, I didn't comment on anything about Morocco at all. Journalists from Morocco, from the region, are calling me... but it's hard for me to say anything," Halilhodzic said, as per Goal.

"And these words cannot wash away my bitterness, and cannot make up for what I missed with this tournament.

"They took away my pride, I can't forget or forgive them.

"Because it was also supposed to be my farewell to my coaching career. That's all I can say on the subject."
