The Atlas Lions also became the first Arab team to make the last four following Youssef En-Nesyri’s first-half goal sealed the win. ---------- Latest itel S24 available on Pindula: 128GB storage, 4GB RAM $119 USD WhatsApp: +263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 Buy Online: https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s24-128gb-22-20240426142756795795/?s=wanews ---------- Morocco took the lead in the 42nd minute through En-Nesyri’s header as they came on strong late in the first half. Despite late pressure by the Portuguese, an injury-hit Morocco, without three of their four first-choice defenders once skipper Romain Saiss was forced off, hung on despite being reduced to 10 men in added time. Moroccan coach Walid Regragui said: > We came up against a really great Portugal team. We’re drawing on all we have, we still have guys injured. > I told the guys before the match we had to write history for Africa. I’m very, very happy. Five-time Ballon d’Or winner Ronaldo was sent on early in the second half by coach Fernando Santos but could not rescue the Euro 2016 winners. Before the victory over Portugal, Morocco had already beaten other European football powerhouses, that is, Belgium and Spain, on penalties, in Qatar. Walid Regragui’s men will face holders France in the semifinals at Al Bayt Stadium on Wednesday. | SuperSport _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
