Morocco coach Herve Renard has hailed Malawi’s resilience after the goalless draw in Blantyre.
The Atlas Lions had already qualified for the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations finals but Renard still fielded a strong squad against Malawi in a Group B match.
After being restricted to a goalless draw, the Frenchman praised Malawi for a brave show as his side avoided an away defeat.
“Most of the times it is direct football. The (Malawi) strikers are very fast and fight a lot. They never give up so it was a tough team to face.
