Morocco qualifies for WCup semifinal

In another 2022 FIFA World Cup upset, Morocco defeated Portugal 1-0 in the quarterfinals today in Qatar.

In doing so, Morocco becomes the first African nation to make the World Cup semifinals.
The winner came in the 42nd minute by Youssef En-Nesyri .

Off a cross from Yahya Attiat-Allah, En-Nesyri floated above two Portuguese players including goalkeeper Diogo Costa — to head the ball into the back of the net.

Cristiano Ronaldo didn’t start again for Portugal, but he was subbed on in the 52nd minute — early in the second half.
