FIFA Cup Semis – France vs Morocco!
Recommended for Preparatory Grades
After beating Morocco by a score of 2-0, France will play Argentina in the World Cup final. This win kept France on track to defend their title and put an end to the North Africans’ miraculous run in Qatar.
France will feel a huge sense of relief after becoming the first team to make it to two FIFA World Cup finals.
Key facts!
- Theo Hernandez scored the goal in the fifth minute.
- This gave the current champions (France) the best possible start.
- France was hoping for an early goal to quiet down the loud Moroccan fans at the Al Bayt Stadium.
- They hoped that this would also lower Moroccon’s team confidence.
- Morocco, on the other hand, got over the blows they took and didn’t care about France’s reputation.
- Even with this, the game was still very close.
- The game was over when France scored a second goal 11 minutes before the end.
- This made it impossible for the other team to win.
- Randal Kolo Muani, who came on as a substitute, scored the first goal.
- The second goal was set up by Mbappe, who first tried to dribble through the Morocco defence before shooting.
- Kolo Muani scored the goal after the ball ended up in his path after his shot was blocked.
A tough battle but the holders came out on top 💪
