Passion

A boy plays with his ball in an alley in Chefchaouen, "the blue city." The Soccer World Cup recently ended, in which Morocco had a notable participation, and that has triggered people's passion for soccer. Some of the stars of the Moroccan team play for big European teams and have become rich and famous. Many Moroccan children see in them a model to get out of the poverty in which they live and they practice many hours to improve their skills.
