France Outclass Morocco 2-0, Storm World Cup Semi-finals
France booked their place in the semi-finals of the 2026 FIFA World Cup after defeating Morocco 2-0 in a keenly contested quarter-final played on Thursday night in Boston, United States.
The former world champions produced a disciplined and clinical display, scoring in each half to end Morocco’s impressive run in the tournament and keep alive their dream of lifting another World Cup trophy.
Morocco, one of Africa’s standout teams at the tournament, fought with determination and enjoyed spells of possession but found it difficult to break down the resolute French defence. France, on the other hand, capitalised on their chances and managed the game expertly to secure a deserved victory.
With the result, Les Bleus advance to the last four, where they will face the winner of the quarter-final between Spain and Belgium in their quest for another appearance in the World Cup final.
Despite the defeat, Morocco exit the competition with their heads held high after another remarkable World Cup campaign that underlined the steady rise of African football on the global stage.
France will now turn their attention to the semi-finals as they continue their pursuit of a second World Cup title in three editions.
