On this day 43 years ago, two Concordes, British Airways and Air France landed at Orlando International Airport (MCO) on the same day and at the same time on dual runways.

This occasion was part of a special promotional and goodwill visit to celebrate the opening of the new Orlando International Airport terminal.

Thousands of people gathered to see the Concordes land together as it was rare to have one Concorde visit Orlando, let alone two at once.

Morocco won the FIFA U20 World Cup for the first time, defeating Argentina 2-0 in the final at the Estadio Nacional Julio Martínez Prádanos in Santiago, Chile.

Yassir Zabiri opened the scoring in the 12th minute with a free-kick that beat Argentine goalkeeper Santino Barbi. Morocco doubled their lead in the 28th minute when Othmane Maamma set up Zabiri for a close-range finish.

Argentina dominated possession, holding 71% of the ball, but struggled to create clear chances. Moroccan defenders stayed organised and blocked key attempts, while the goalkeeper kept the scoreline intact. Several VAR reviews and free-kick opportunities for Argentina were wasted.

In the second half, Morocco focused on defending their lead. Tactical substitutions reinforced the defence and midfield, stopping Argentina from finding a way through. The South Americans missed several chances and grew increasingly frustrated. Zabiri was named man of the match for his two goals.
