Morocco's football federation (FMRF) has protested to world governing body Fifa about the refereeing during Wednesday's World Cup semi-final defeat by defending champions France in Qatar.

The FMRF is unhappy that Mexican referee Cesar Ramos failed to award a penalty in the first half to the North Africans when Theo Hernandez made contact with Sofiane Boufal in the area.

Instead of awarding a spot-kick, which several neutrals felt was appropriate, Ramos instead booked winger Boufal for a foul.

The Moroccans were also unhappy that the hauling down of substitute Selim Amallah as he awaited the delivery of a set-piece also failed to prompt another look from officials.

The first African and Arab team to contest a World Cup semi-final, Morocco lost 2-0 after an early goal by left-back Hernandez was followed by a late strike from substitute Randal Kolo Muani.

"The FMRF has written to the relevant body to review the refereeing decisions that deprived the Moroccan team of two penalties that were indisputable in the view of several refereeing specialists," the Moroccan ruling body said in a statement.

"The FMRF was equally astonished that the video assistant referee (VAR) did not react to these situations."
The lack of VAR intervention mystified some of those working as pundits during the game.

"It looked like a penalty to Morocco for me - VAR not working," asked former England striker Chris Sutton, who attended the game for domestic British radio.

It was an analysis with which former England defender Rio Ferdinand agreed.

"I thought it was a penalty on Sofiane Boufal, rather than a foul by him," the former Manchester United player, working as a television pundit, said.

BBC Sport Africa has contacted Fifa for comment regarding the Moroccan protest.

The Atlas Lions still have one game left in Qatar when they take on Croatia in Saturday's third-place play-off.

Having already defied expectations by overcoming Belgium, Spain and Portugal en route to the last four, the Atlas Lions can now become the first African team to ever take an effective bronze medal at the World Cup.

The shooting, which occurred on Monday evening in the city’s Central West End neighbourhood, was confirmed by police, who said the injured employee was taken to the hospital for treatment.


An employee of the American fast-food restaurant, KFC, in St. Louis, United States has been reportedly shot.

He was shot by a customer who got angry because the restaurant told him they had run out of corn.

The shooting, which occurred on Monday evening in the city’s Central West End neighbourhood, was confirmed by police, who said the injured employee was taken to the hospital for treatment.

According to investigators, the man attempted to place an order in the restaurant’s drive-thru lane. When he learned the store was out of corn, he became enraged and threatened employees, according to police.

When he approached the drive-thru window, the man was armed with a handgun. According to police, a 25-year-old employee who went outside to speak with the driver returned to the restaurant and stated that he had been shot.

As of Tuesday afternoon, the driver had not been apprehended.

In the United States, the surge in gun violence comes as firearm purchases rose to record levels in 2020 and 2021, with more than 43 million guns estimated to have been purchased during that period, according to a Washington Post analysis of federal data on gun background checks. At the same time, the rate of gun deaths in those years hit the highest level since 1995, with more than 45,000 fatalities each year.

Guns are used in most suicides and are almost entirely responsible for an overall rise in homicides across the country from 2018 to 2021, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
