Hassania Coach: "We Were Denied a Clear Penalty That Could Have Brought Us Back into the Wydad Match"

Amir Abdi, coach of Hassania Agadir, affirmed that his team deserved a penalty in their 2-1 defeat against Wydad AC, a match postponed from the sixth round of the Professional League.

Abdi stated in press remarks: "We didn't play a bad match, but we are still repeating our mistakes, and we must correct them. I don't talk much about refereeing, but everyone saw that there was a clear penalty. I believe the opposing team doesn't need such things to win matches."

He added: "For me, I don't care if the referee will face sanctions or not. We want to win and achieve a good result. There was a very clear handball, everyone saw it, and it could have brought us back into the game. We tried to press in the second half, but unfortunately, we lost 1-0, a result we didn't deserve."

He continued: "Since we are not playing on our home ground, the situation is complicated. I did not expect this arrangement at all; I thought we would be playing at our own stadium. When you are in this situation for a long time, it becomes difficult, and we are not the only team; there are other teams that also don't have a stadium."
