Injury concerns for Morocco ahead of their World Cup opener
HARRISON: Morocco are concerned about injuries to starters Abdessamad Ezzalzouli and Noussair Mazraoui, who could be forced out of their opening game at the World Cup against Brazil on Sunday. Both went off early in Sunday’s 1-1 draw with Norway in their last warm-up match before this week’s kick-off of the tournament in Canada, Mexico, and the United States. Ezzalzouli was replaced at halftime after suffering a leg injury, while Mazraoui departed in the 29th minute with a shoulder problem after a tough encounter in which Morocco took an early lead but Norway equalized with 15 minutes remaining. “We left a good impression despite not winning because we really showed some very good things against a very good opponent,” coach Mohamed Ouahbi told reporters. “That’s the point of playing against teams like this. When you make so many changes (10 in total), it’s difficult for the player but it was important that we managed everyone’s playing time. “Two players went off injured.

Prosecutors in the two states said they would investigate ticket practices by the game’s governing body and organizer of the tournament starting June 11 in the United States, Mexico and Canada. “FIFA has turned buying a ticket to the World Cup into a gauntlet of confusion, fake scarcity, and impossibly high prices,” said Jennifer Davenport, attorney general for New Jersey, which will host the final on July 19. “We are committed to conducting a thorough investigation of FIFA’s conduct,” she said. The investigation will probe reports that fans were misled about seat locations and hurt by aggressive demand-based price-setting, where prices rise according to sales. “New Yorkers have been waiting years for the World Cup to come to their backyard and they deserve a fair shot at affordable tickets,” said the state’s attorney general, Letitia James. “No one should be manipulated into paying sky-high prices for seats, and fans should be able to trust that the tickets they purchase will be the ones they receive.” Much of the controversy has focused on the cost of attending the eight games at the New York Giants and Jets NFL stadium just outside New York City in New Jersey. In addition to tickets, it will cost $100 to take the train from New York — instead of the typical $12.90 fare.
