“Congratulations to my team for keeping the winning streak going. We did not anticipate losing that third set but poor reception and service mistakes gave Morocco the opportunity to dominate set.
“We are, however, focused on the bigger goal and that is maintaining our unbeaten run as we are here to reclaim the title,” Moim said after the match.
On his part, assistant coach Paul Bitok called for calm saying that losing a set against a team that had the opportunity to study Malkia Strikers while they camped in Morocco ahead of this championship and even played two friendly matches should be no cause for alarm.
Malkia next face off Lesotho for their final match of the group round.
