Coach Nasr El-Din Nabi, the new head coach of Wydad Athletic Club, affirmed that his ultimate goal focuses on restoring the Red Club to its well-known natural status on both the national and continental levels. This statement came after Wydad narrowly defeated Maghreb Tetouan 1-0 in the sixth round of the professional “Inwi” league matches yesterday, a result he considered a first step toward building a strong team capable of competing vigorously.
During the press conference following the match, Nabi explained that the first half’s performance was not up to expectations, but the team regained balance and improved significantly in the second half. Nabi highlighted that tactical challenges, including a lack of options in some positions, led him to focus primarily on securing the three points rather than pursuing aesthetic play at this moment, stressing that winning is the priority at this stage.
The Wydad coach praised the fighting spirit shown by the players and their commitment to achieving victory, revealing that some of them played while dealing with minor injuries, which confirms their determination to serve the team. Nasr El-Din Nabi emphasized that reaching the set goals and high ambitions requires concerted efforts, hard work, and full understanding among all club components — administration, technical staff, players, and fans.
Nabi concluded his remarks by emphasizing that his ambitions with Wydad Athletic Club go beyond merely winning local titles. His primary goal is to build a cohesive and future-oriented group capable of restoring the team’s glory and returning it strongly to the forefront of continental and local competitions. He viewed these successive positive results as an inevitable fruit of this continuous work and the great effort exerted by everyone.
