‘Africa to the world’ – Morocco’s World Cup feat sends social media into meltdown
Football fans across the world are celebrating Morocco following their historic 1-0 win over Portugal in the quarter-final of the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
Youssef En-Nesyri’s first-half was enough to make the Atlas Lions become the first African country to qualify for the semi-final of the global competition.
No African country has progressed beyond the last-eight stage and the performances of Walid Regragui’s side have revived Africa’s hope of winning the Mundial.
Congratulations Morocco π²π¦ π²π¦ π²π¦ Africa to the world π

Wow! Morocco lead. What a leap from En-Nesyri. Is there a trampoline under this pitch?

African Champions League winner with Wydad Casablanca only 6 months ago and World Cup semifinalist 81 days after taking the Morocco job. What a year for Walid! https://t.co/LWSxr9oTUw

En-Nesyri gives Morocco the lead just before halftime and Portugal are about to find out that they are playing an away match here in Qatar. π₯π₯
