Two days after the elimination of the "Atlas Lions" in the round of 16 of the Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt, several rumors announce Hervé Renard leaving Morocco for a new challenge.

Two days after the elimination of the "Atlas Lions" in the round of 16 of the Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt, several rumors announce Hervé Renard leaving Morocco for a new challenge.

Hervé Renard had difficulty hiding his emotion during the press conference devoted to Morocco’s match against Benin and the elimination of the "Atlas Lions".

It was a very emotional Hervé Renard who presented himself on Friday, July 5th, evening, at the post-match press conference, Morocco-Benin, which saw the elimination of the "Atlas Lions" when they were considered to be among the favorites for the title.

The elimination of the Moroccan football team, on this Friday, July 5, 2019 evening, in the round of 16 of the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations (CAN) by the Benin team, considered however very easy, probably marks the end of the contract of the French coach, Hervé Renard, at the head of the "Atlas Lions".

The coach of the "Atlas Lions", Hervé Renard, said that the Benin team would not be an easy opponent and that he knew the team and its coach, Michel Dussuyer, very well. The players should remain focused and very serious during this round of 16 match.

Of the coaches present at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations (CAN) in Egypt, only Renard and Belmadi are the best paid. In fact, the coach of the Egyptian team is paid 240 times more than the Burundian coach.

Even though Morocco won 1-0 against the South African team, coach Hervé Renard is not satisfied with his players’ performance, believing that they did not have a great game.

It is this Monday, July 1, 2019 that the "Atlas Lions" of Morocco will play their last group match against the South African team. Already qualified, the Moroccans must above all remain focused and try to obtain the last three points, before thinking about the round of 16.

During the pre-match press conference, Morocco-South Africa, the coach of the "Atlas Lions", Hervé Renard, commented on the case of Hakim Ziyech, whose game was very hampered during the match of the Moroccan team against Côte d’Ivoire.

It is a determined Hervé Renard who answered journalists yesterday, Friday, June 28, 2019, following Morocco’s 1-0 victory over Côte d’Ivoire, a team he knows well and even led to the trophy.

Impressed by a photo of Moroccan supporters, national coach Hervé Renard expressed his thanks to the public in the Kingdom, after the victory of the "Atlas Lions" over Namibia, in the first match played by Morocco in the prestigious Africa Cup of Nations (CAN).

Many seasoned observers place Morocco as a major favorite to win this 32nd Africa Cup of Nations (CAN) hosted by Egypt. Far from denying this eventuality, the French coach of the "Atlas Lions", Hervé Renard, fully admits it, in an interview with the French newspaper Le Monde.
