They are a second team from the continent go to quarter final match of World Cup. The only team did it before Morocco is Cameroon with Roger Milla. Now Morocco have a chance to be a first African team to play in World Cup semi final if they win against Portugal in coming days.
There is a chance. If they can defeat Spain, then why not Portugal? Afterall, Portugal is ranked below Spain. And for Portugal (despite their huge win against Switzerland during the PQF stage), it will be a tough task to handle the Moroccan defenders (Achraf Hakimi, Noussair Mazraoui and Nayef Aguerd). And it is going to be a direct battle between Christiano Ronaldo and the Moroccan keeper (Yassine Bounou). In all probability Portugal will win the match but Morocco for sure will be fancying their chances of progressing to the semi finals.
after what Ramos showed against Switzerland, I think there is another option for the Portuguese coach to still bench Ronaldo at the start of the match. Portugal's game looked more aggressive in the match against Switzerland.
if Ronaldo is played from the first half, it looks like there will be a rotation of several players from the formation used in the match against Switzerland. Portugal still has a bigger chance of winning. but Morocco could have a surprise. however, they forced Spain into a penalty shootout. if that happened to Portugal, Morocco might get the same victory.
