France will face Morocco in the second semi final of the World Cup after the European side beat England 1-2 at the 60,000 capacity Al Bayt Stadium. Morocco stunned Spain before beating Portugal to become the first African team to reach the final four, and will go up against the current World Cup holders in a game that could go either way. Before that, they topped the group beating Belgium and Canada, as well as drawing with fellow semi-finalists, Croatia. In the first semi-final Argentina beat Croatia 3-0, the winner of France and Morocco will play Messi and co. on Sunday at 10 a.m. ET. Morocco, given the side of the bracket they have come from in the tournament draw, will be the ‘away’ side, with France the ‘home’ team. The other semi-final, Argentina against Croatia, was played at the same time the day before at the Lusail Stadium, which is also the venue for the final on 18 December.

The semi final will be played Today at the Al Bayt stadium at 2 p.m. ET / 11 a.m. PT.

As we have seen, Morocco are not to be underestimated. They put two past Belgium, shocked everyone when they held their own against Spain and stunned Portugal, sending Ronaldo home in tears. Sofyan Amrabat has made a name for himself on the global stage, becoming one of the players of the tournament, and will have another opportunity to shine. However, France have so much firepower together with a strong defence and should be too much for the African side to make their way to the final. Prediction: France 0-0 Morocco (MOROCCO WIN ON PENALTIES) The referee for france vs Morocco is Mexican Cesar Ramos, who has been in charge of Denmark-Tunisia (0-0) and Belgium-Morocco (0-2) in the group stage, and Portugal-Switzerland (6-1) in the round of 16 at this World Cup.
