Taoussi: Confident of success

Morocco coach Rachid Taoussi says patience will be key to his young side progressing from Group A following the goalless draw against Angola in their Africa Cup of Nations opener.

The Lions of the Atlas and the Black Antelopes currently sit on one point each, along with group rivals South Africa and Cape Verde, leaving the path to the quarter-finals wide open for all four teams.

Taoussi, though, is confident his youthful squad can do the business in their remaining first-round matches, which continues against Cape Verde on Wednesday.

"We created space and moved the ball around well against Angola, but did not punish them. However, I must be patient as we have a young team with an average age of 24 and we are building," Taoussi said.

"Let us remember that Angola are a good team with excellent strikers and I believe we can offer more in our games this week against Cape Verde and South Africa.
