En-Nesyri’s 42nd minute strike helped the Atlas Lions of Morocco to beat Portugal 1:0 to become the first African nation to progress to the semi-final stage of the history of the World Cup tournament.
Portugal won possession throughout the game at 75% to 25% but could not beat Morocco’s keeper to strike level heads. Cristiano Ronaldo who was on at the 51st minute could not effect any impact with his quality threat.
Emotional Cristiano Ronaldo was seen leaving the pitch in tears for the final time in this World Cup. He walked straight down the tunnel as soon as the referee blew the final whistle. This is surely his last appearance as a player at a FIFA World Cup tournament.
Morocco will meet either England or France in the semi-finals. Could Morocco be the first African and Arab nation to win the World Cup?
