Match Preview: France vs. Morocco

This encounter revisits the 2022 World Cup semifinals, featuring two teams that have become familiar with late-stage tournament pressure. France earned their spot after a tight 1-0 win against Paraguay, secured by a penalty from Kylian Mbappé. With seven goals and two assists, Mbappé remains a strong contender for the Golden Boot, competing against legends like Lionel Messi and Erling Haaland.

Morocco advanced with an impressive second-half surge against Canada, highlighted by a brace from Azzedine Ounahi and a late goal by Soufiane Rahimi. To challenge France's deep attacking options led by Ousmane Dembélé and Michael Olise, Morocco will rely on key players such as Achraf Hakimi, Brahim Díaz, Youssef En-Nesyri, and Noussair Mazraoui.
