Tikteknu: today's summary clip, 11.8 (Sport1)
Although this is quite an unusual thing, almost before every World Cup one of the national teams fires its coach in the last months before the tournament.
However, very few coaches have a story like Vahid Halilodzic's.
The 69-year-old Bosnian coach led the Moroccan team to the World Cup and was supposed to guide it in the tournament in Qatar, but today (Thursday) the Moroccans announced the end of his position.
For Halilodzic, this is a particularly disappointing scenario, but not one he is unfamiliar with.
In February 2010, less than four months before the tournament in South Africa, Halilodzic was dismissed from the Ivory Coast national team.
This also happened to him in 2018, when just two months before the tournament in Russia he finished his job as coach of the Japanese national team.
As mentioned, now the panic scenario has repeated itself for the third time, about three months before the World Cup starts.
A repeating script.

The coach who guided the Moroccan team starting in 2019 had a conflict during his tenure with two of the team's biggest stars, Nossier Mazrawi from Bayern Munich and Hakim Zayesh from Chelsea, when his conflict with the coach caused a big uproar and caused the star to retire from the team.
According to reports, the reasons for the dismissals are "disagreement regarding the preparation of the team for the tournament", and now in Morocco they will wait to see if Halilodzic's departure will cause Zeish to withdraw and represent the team in Qatar.
Morocco was drawn to house number 6 alongside Belgium, Croatia and Canada.
By the way, Halilodzic did manage to coach once in the World Cup during his career, and he had a particularly great success.
In the 2014 tournament in Brazil, the Bosnian coached the Algerian national team and led it to the round of 16, where they lost 2:1 after extra time to Germany, who were crowned world champions at the end of the tournament.
