Morocco, a north Africa country on Saturday became the first African nation to reach the World Cup semi-finals.

This followed Youssef En-Nesyri’s first-half goal, a tense 1-0 victory over Portugal at Al Thumama Stadium.

Indeed, the Atlas Lions, is also the first Arab team to make the last four.

Cristiano Ronaldo has likely played his last World Cup match after making an ineffectual appearance as a second-half substitute, failing to score his first knockout-phase goal at the tournament.

Morocco took a 42nd-minute lead through En-Nesyri’s header as they came on strongly late in the first period.
