FOXBOROUGH, Massachusetts, July 9 : A disappointed Morocco said they had hoped to progress past the World Cup quarter-finals, but had to accept they lost to a better team as France eliminated them 2-0 in Thursday's tie.Coach Mohamed Ouahbi said his side had still left a good image despite a laboured performance as they lost to France for a second successive tournament."I told my players to keep their heads high because we gave our all, we gave our best, but, of course, we need to take stock of the situation, to progress, it's essential," Ouahbi told reporters."We cannot just say that we're happy and proud of our performance. We need to move forward, and in order to do so, we have to be objective and to do some self-criticism, to assess the situation." Morocco played second fiddle to France
