I Did not Acheive Anything at AFC Champions League and Top Scorer is not The Goal I Seek.. Soufiane Rahimi: Our Goal is to Satisfy Ainawi Nation and Our Ambition is to Claim Asia Tournament
The Moroccan international player, Soufiane Rahimi, the player who claimed the title of the match’s top star in his team’s match vs Saudi Al-Hilal after he managed to score a “hat-trick,” said: “I am very proud of my teammates’ performance and our capability in satisfying Ainawi nation in AFC Champions League first leg match vs Saudi Al-Hilal, and from tomorrow morning we will commence our preparations for the second leg match, which is scheduled to take place at Riyadh.”
Commenting on a question on his top performance vs Saudi clubs, he said: “Who aspires to claim glory in football realm is required to show the spirit of triumph and to be up to the challenge in such big matches. On the personal level I think that I did not so far achieve anything at AFC Champions League tournament, while top scorer title is not my ambition as much as reaching the final match and claiming the Asian tournament is.”
On his top performance with the absence of Kodjo Fo-Doh Laba: “Coaching matters are not of my concern and Laba is a top and important player at the team’s ecosystem, while any player like Soufiane, Laba, Matías, Bandar, and Kaku, are all players who work to stay in line with the coach’s directions and I do not prefer to concentrate on these futile matters.”
