The End Is Just The Beginning Of Something New( Appreciation Post For Morocco)
On Wednesday we saw Morocco, the only African team in the world cup semifinal loloseo defending champions France by 2-0. I don't see it as a loss but as a victory for the African side, they came into the competition with nobody having high expectations of them, won against top-ranked Fila teams, and made it to the semifinal of the world cup, all they had was believe and support from their African brothers, and in all African eyes we see them as heroes because they did us proud.
Morocco, in my opinion, outplayed France, they just lacked a finishing touch in front of goal which cost them the match. I can count how many times Morocco had an excellent opportunity to score but failed to find the back line of the goalpost, and even the commentator complained about the same thing about the team not being able to take shots when they are supposed to in the box.
Anyways that is all in the past now they have made Africans proud and we Africans are equally proud of the team. With Morocco reaching the semifinals they have increased the number of teams from Africa that will participate in the 2026 world cup which will be held in Canada, The United States Of America, and Mexico.
Morocco still has a mission in Qatar, which is to take home the third-place medal of the Fifa 2022 world cup which they rightfully deserve in my opinion Morocco will face Croatia tomorrow around 4 pm in west African time, this will be the second time both teams will meet in the competition, they played a goalless draw in their first meeting in the group stage last month and Morocco was able to match Croatia to everything except ball possession in the whole 90th minute
It will be a beautiful end for Morocco if they could win the third-place medal and put their name in the history books, not only becoming the first African team to reach the semi-final but also being the first African nation to finish third in the history of the FIFA world cup. So guys that will be all for now and I will be looking forward to Morocco vs Croatia tomorrow, have a great weekend ahead, and thanks for stopping by
