Morocco don lose most of their key players down the road. Semi and 3rd place go hard them to score but it's not impossible to lift the trophy.

Congratulations to Morocco for going this far. First African team to reach the semi-finals of the world cup.
History safe!
You will be surprised that Morocco will be the first African nation to lift the trophy.

Morocco became the first African nation to reach a World Cup semi-final and ended the hopes of Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal.

Striker Youssef En-Nesyri scored the winning goal in the first half, leaping highest to beat goalkeeper Diogo Costa to the ball and heading in to spark pandemonium at Al Thumama Stadium

The north African side's supporters populated most of the venue and joyously celebrated their breakthrough moment for their continent on the global stage.

Ronaldo came off the bench in the 50th minute to equal the men's all-time appearance record of 196 in international matches, but he could not drag his side back into the contest.

Morocco were happy to play on the counter and grabbed the opener just before the break when En-Nesyri headed in from Yahya Attiyat-Allah's cross.

Portugal skipper Bruno Fernandes came agonisingly close to levelling just minutes later but a brilliant individual effort struck the crossbar.

Decimated by injuries, Morocco sat back for the majority of the second half and Yassine Bounou brilliantly tipped over Joao Felix's drive - the closest they came to an equaliser.

Morocco striker Walid Cheddira was sent off for a second yellow card in eight minutes of additional time but Portugal could not find the equaliser as their last-four hopes were dashed.





CONGRATULATIONS MOROCCO.
CONGRATULATIONS AFRICA.

Morocco beat Belgium, beat Canada, drew against Croatia. Defeated Spain and Portugal... The team in the world right now
