01:42The agreement was signed by the president of the Moroccan Royal Moroccan Football Federation, Fawzi Darja
01:47and the president of the RCA Al-Isaïd.
01:50Morocco's choice to house the seat of this organisation is part of its commitment to the development of African football
01:58and its continental and international impact.
02:01The strategic position of the kingdom, its infrastructures, its ability to unite African clubs
02:07and to provide them with modern working tools are as many elements that were decisive in this choice.

02:47that must revolutionize the football of our African clubs, competitions, whether it is the Champions League
02:56or the Confederations Cup, are called to be metamorphosed,
03:01seen again from beginning to end, allowing more evolution, more marketing
03:10and of course more resources allowing to develop these clubs.

03:43since the new Brazilian-Italian coach of Juventus, Thiago Motta, no longer counts on him
03:49after removing his captain's armband.

05:57to come back on this 2nd Australian Open. Let's listen to it.
06:19The first Australian Open won is more a relief, but the second is different.
06:24It gives you the impression that you can do it, if you play good tennis.
06:28The second is maybe more pleasant because it is different,
06:31but every Grand Slam, or every tournament you win, or that you try to win, has its own story.
06:37You have to overcome the difficulties, as I did this year here, and that's what makes this tournament very special.
06:49I'm going to enjoy my moment now, of course.
06:52Roland Garros starts next, but it's a different tournament.
06:55I think I played the semi-finals last year. Let's see what awaits us there.
07:00The grass is also a different surface, where you have to have a lot of self-confidence.
07:05Let's see. I mean, I'm satisfied with this Grand Slam.
07:08We'll see what I can accomplish in the future.
07:14For women, the American Madison Keyes, winner of the Australian Open on Saturday,

08:18The Frenchman played twice at home and no doubt he had in mind
08:22this 10th place, synonymous with an absolute victory record
08:25in the most mythical rally of the world championship.
08:28Despite a fright during the first leg, making him lose his head in the race,

08:36by adopting a very high pace from the first special.
