If the presence of France, reigning world champion, in the semi-finals of this 2022 World Cup is not really surprising, they were probably few to have bet on the historic qualification of Morocco, which became Saturday , after his victory against Portugal (1-0), the first African country to reach the last four of a World Cup. And if the men of Didier Deschamps, winners of England (2-1), are favorites for this second semi-final, which will take place on Wednesday, the day after Argentina-Croatia, they must be particularly wary of the Atlas Lions, who have conceded only one goal, scored by Nayef Aguerd against his camp against Canada, and in particular beat Belgium before eliminating Spain and therefore Portugal. Former coach of Morocco (2016-2019), Hervé Renard also warned the Blues before this match.
