Algerie Foot: Algerian journalist and sports commentator Hafid Darraji said Algeria was aware of Morocco’s attempt to secure an imaginary diplomatic victory by lifting the air embargo.

Derradji released a message confirming that football officials in Morocco stood by the decision to fly the banned Moroccan airline over Algerian airspace and prevent their local players from participating in the Algerian championship scheduled in Algeria.

He pointed out that this phase was a missed opportunity for the Moroccan officials to gain points and win the sympathy of the people at the expense of the Algerian side.

According to Derradji, “it was possible to enter via Tunisia, as was the Moroccan delegation that attended the Mediterranean Games”.

It was also possible to accept the Algerian proposal, conveyed by the CAF President to the Moroccan side, to allow him to travel directly from Rabat to Algeria on another non-banned flight, which was the proposal Infantino spokesman approved yesterday added.

The Algerian journalist mentioned that the Moroccan side manipulated the feelings of their Moroccan players and supporters as they tried until this morning to impose their region on Algeria in order to win an (imaginary) diplomatic victory by breaking the “ban”.

He stressed that the Moroccan plan is aware of the Algerian side, which does not accept compromises on their positions and principles at any price, even if the intended bus for the Moroccan national team is waiting at Constantine Airport.

And it has been confirmed that the Moroccan national team was absent from participating in the African Nations Cup for locals in Algeria.

On Thursday, the Moroccan national team announced their withdrawal from the tournament in an official statement to put pressure on the Algerian side to comply with their demands.
