Rabat – The sports program Al Majlis, which runs alongside coverage of the FIFA Arab Cup, has become one of the most talked‑about shows in recent weeks.
Known for its lively discussions and bold style, the program has also drawn strong criticism from viewers and analysts.
Many followers say the show often uses exaggeration or presents stories that are not fully accurate.
They believe these methods are used mainly to attract attention and increase the program’s reach on social media. This approach has made Al Majlis popular, but it has also raised questions about its credibility.
One of the most controversial moments came when a Kuwaiti analyst on the show claimed that Morocco had falsified the ages of its U20 players to win the World Cup and defeat Brazil and Argentina.
The statement was widely shared online and sparked anger among Moroccan fans, who saw it as defamation and an attempt to undermine their team’s success.
No evidence was provided to support the claim, and critics said it was another example of the program favoring drama over facts.
Critics argue that the search for excitement has sometimes overshadowed accuracy and professionalism.
They point out that the program’s focus on dramatic statements and heated debates creates doubt among the audience. For some, Al Majlis has become more about media noise than objective analysis.
Supporters of the show, however, see its style as part of its appeal. They say football is not only about results but also about passion, and Al Majlis reflects that energy. The program’s ability to spark conversation and keep fans engaged is seen by many as a strength.
