France vs Morocco: Preview

After Morocco saw off Cristiano Ronaldo in the quarter-finals, they will be hoping to seal a date with football’s other GOAT, Lionel Messi, by winning this mammoth tie with France. Walid Regragui’s side have produced a World Cup underdog story that rivals South Korea’s run to the semi-finals in 2022 and they will be looking to extend it even further. 

France, on the other hand, are now the tournament favourites after coming out on top in a closely fought match with England in their quarter-final tie. The current holders are also big favourites here but they will have to find a way to break down a defence that has conceded just one goal all tournament. 

Argentina await the winners in what will be a blockbuster final on Sunday afternoon regardless of who comes out on top here.
