Daei hopes this new generation will also lead them to their first Asian Cup crown since 1976 when the tournament is held in the United Arab Emirates next January.
“I’m very hopeful that this team will perform well and can become Asian champions,” he said.

RABAT (Dispatches) - A World Cup in Morocco would be “almost a European” tournament, the man leading the African nation’s 2026 bid says.

Morocco wants to become only the second African nation to stage the finals - after the 2010 event in South Africa. More than 200 of FIFA’S member associations will vote to decide the 2026 World Cup host on 13 June. In contrast to the joint bid from the Americas, Morocco’s representatives are keen to emphasize that the maximum internal flying time for any team will be around 75 minutes.

They also believe Morocco’s Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) time zone will be attractive to the critical European audiences and to sponsors.
“There is confidence from our meetings with member associations across Europe, they understand where we come from,” El Amrani said. “They know Moroccan hospitality and vibrancy.”

World Number One Halep Into French Open Second Round

“A Moroccan World Cup is not just an African World Cup,” he told media.
“It would also be almost a European World Cup with the south of Spain just 14km (nine miles) away.

PARIS (Dispatches) - World number one Simona Halep began her bid for a first Grand Slam title with a gutsy fightback in her rain-delayed French Open first-round match.

Halep, last year’s runner-up, lost the first set before recovering to win 2-6 6-1 6-1 against American Alison Riske.
Ukraine’s fourth seed Elina Svitolina reached the third round with a 6-3 6-4 win over Slovakia’s Viktoria Kuzmova. Two-time Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova, seeded eighth, also beat Spain’s Lara Arruabarrena 6-0 6-4. Two-time French Open finalist Halep has spent much of the past seven months as the world’s leading female player, despite never transferring her consistency on tour into lifting one of tennis’ most prestigious prizes. Halep lost to unseeded Latvian Jelena Ostapenko in the Roland Garros final last year, one of six defeats in a showpiece over the past year.
But reaching a second final in Paris looked a long way off as she made a woeful start in a match which originally supposed to be played on Tuesday. The 26-year-old Romanian hit 16 unforced errors in a opening set, but then won nine of the next 10 games to take control.

“We’re just a few hours’flying distance from capital cities across Europe, and the European countries will provide a huge number of fans.”
