The World Cup quarterfinals’ second day got off to an exciting start on Saturday when Morocco eliminated Portugal from the competition with a 1-0 victory.
Youssef En-soaring Nesyri’s header just before halftime proved to be the game’s deciding factor because Portugal was unable to get past Morocco’s defence to score an equaliser.
The first-ever World Cup semifinalist from Africa, Morocco will move on to face the winner of England vs. France on Wednesday.
England vs. France
This could end in a scoreless draw since neither team can or will get past the other, or it could end up being the match of the competition. Is there a middle ground? We’re interested to see if England switches to a different system or adds a fifth defender to counteract Olivier Giroud’s holdup play and Kylian Mbappe’s speed. Even in the United States, people would be visibly upset if this game went to penalties.
