🧠 Match Summary

vs

France booked their place in the World Cup 2026 semi-finals with a composed 2-0 victory over Morocco in Boston, with two goals in a devastating six-minute spell proving the difference. Kylian Mbappé broke the deadlock on 60 minutes before Ousmane Dembélé extended the lead at 66, extinguishing Moroccan hopes of repeating their historic 2022 run to the last four.

Morocco actually shaded possession at 52% but were ultimately undone by France's clinical finishing and superior pressure, with Les Bleus registering 22 shots to Morocco's five. The Atlas Lions' goalkeeper was kept busy with six saves, while France's stopper was tested just once, underlining a dominant second-half display that sent Didier Deschamps' side into the final four under referee Facundo Tello.
