"To be honest, even though I am a citizen of France, I will support my historical country Morocco in this game. I already support them from the group stage."

Abdullah Zubir, the football player of "Qarabag" told Qazet.az reportsabout the advancement of the Moroccan national team to the semi-finals of the world championship held in Qatar.

The Moroccan-born French midfielder said that he wants the team representing his historical homeland to win in the semi-final match against France: "But even if they lose, I will not be upset. I will be happy if France advances from now on, I will support them."

The 31-year-old player said that he carefully followed the performance of the African representative at the World Cup: "It was really a surprise that they reached the semifinals. If we expected them to get out of the group somewhere, we were surprised that they did more than that. The Moroccan team continues to surprise us. I am very happy and proud of them. I enjoy their games."
