With a 1-0 victory over Portugal on Saturday, Morocco became the first African side to advance to the semifinals of the FIFA World Cup, virtually destroying Cristiano Ronaldo’s chances of reaching the tournament’s grand finale. Three minutes before the first half’s finish, Portugal, who once again began without its famous forward Ronaldo, gave up a goal.
Ronaldo started the game on the bench.
Similar to the 6-1 demolition of Switzerland in the round of 16 where Ramos had scored a hat-trick, Portugal coach Fernando Santos opted for Gonzalo Ramos over the 37-year-old Ronaldo. The only modification was William Carvalho’s replacement with Ruben Neves in midfield. Walid Regragui, the coach of Morocco, had to field Attiyat-Allah to fill in for injured key defenders Noussair Mazraoui and Aguerd.
The Moroccan defence, which had only allowed one goal in five games of the tournament—an own goal by Nayef Aguerd in the group game against Canada could not be breached despite Portugal’s torrent of attacks. The team of Fernando Santos recently encountered a solid defence that was unyielding.
Yassine Bounou, who made his 50th appearance for Morocco, became the first African goalkeeper to record three clean sheets in a single World Cup after he and his teammates put on a tenacious and compliant display that broke Africa’s quarterfinal curse at the fourth attempt, after Cameroon in 1990, Senegal in 2002, and Ghana in 2010 had all been eliminated at the last-eight stage.
Moroccans went crazy at the final whistle.
At the sound of the final whistle, the players and the mostly Moroccan crowd at Al Thumama Stadium erupted in celebration. They have just witnessed Atlas Lions fans erupting in cheers and yells as their team made history, and they can’t believe what they have just seen. Ronaldo departed the field in tears as the Portugal supporters in the opposing camp stood in a state of shock. The Atlas Lions’ incredible journey continues on Wednesday when they take on either the defending champions France or England, who finished second in the Euro 2020 tournament.
