History was made on Saturday as a 42nd minute goal scored by Morocco’s forward Raimi En-Nesyri marked the defeat of highly rated Portugal by the Nort Africans in the ongoing World Cup in Qatar.
Morocco thus qualified for the semi finals stage.
En-Nesyri’s headed goal set a stage for a crunchy match as the Portuguese came from the half time break blazing but the North Africans dug in and also created chances of their own to win the game.
The victory of Morocco even with 10-men after attacker Chedderi was shown a second yellow card has reverberated across the African continent as no Africa country has gone beyond the quarter finals of FIFA World Cup final.
