21h27 : “We are so happy, you can’t imagine. It’s rare to experience that. Thank you to our Lions! We represent Africa, the Arab countries, and we see there that there are plenty of French people who are doing the party with us!”
In Paris too, a few minutes following the final whistle, thousands of Moroccan fans poured onto the Champs-Elysées to celebrate Morocco’s historic qualification for the semi-finals of the Football World Cup. Here is the report of our journalist on the spot. (JULIEN DE ROSA / AFP)
21h27 : It’s a bird ? Is it a plane? No, it’s a Moroccan supporter! An AFP photographer in Rabat (Morocco) immortalized the jubilation following the victory of the Atlas Lions once morest Portugal. A victory that probably sent some fans to seventh heaven.

21h27 : @Raspberry I thought regarding it a bit, too, and frankly, since the Tunisia match showed that Didier Deschamps can only rely on regarding fifteen really competitive players… I would perhaps try to throw Coman at the place of Dembelé, a little extinct.
Indeed, on the English side, it is opulence on the bench.
21h25 : . We will arrive at the changes, and on paper, the English bench is superior to us?
21h25 : The French players are a bit like the World Cup teams: the best are not the ones we expected… Couldn’t there be a few invisible men tonight?!
21h23 : @Cdn The English defence, particularly the Maguire-Stones hinge, which we thought was heavy, has not yet been faulted this evening.
21h23 : It hurts to say it but the English markings have been excellent from the start…
9:20 p.m : 92nd parry (or thereregardings) by Hugo Lloris, once more on a strike from Jude Bellingham, I think. The goalkeeper of the Blues made his best match in the national team for ages.
9:19 p.m : @Kaz Absolutely, the Blues are formidable from the hour of play since the start of this World Cup. Let’s hope it’s confirmed once more tonight.
21h18 : Kylian, it seems that he only scores from 60min… more than 2 minutes to wait!
21h17 : I will never understand why a team that leads 1 to 0 stops playing and suffers!
21h17 : Giroud is he playing tonight or not?
9:16 p.m : And just now, Kylian Mbappé, missing for a long time, inflicted a draft on Kyle Walker, but his center is not taken up by Olivier Giroud, yet ideally placed. This game is boiling hot! , 57th.
9:15 p.m. : . Tchoumanei will have lived the best and the worst in this match
9:15 p.m. : Go all over once more. Not totally deserved but the defense is rather fragile.
9:15 p.m. : This goal wakes up the Blues, and at the moment, a nice strike from Adrien Rabiot forces the English goalkeeper Jordan Pickford to a good save. It had been a while since he had had anything to do…
9:14 p.m : Harry Kane propels the ball into the net of his club partner in Tottenham, and here are the English who come back up to the Blues. 1-1 between France and Englandeverything has to be done once more !
9:12 p.m : Ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch, penalty whistled for England following a foul by Aurélien Tchouaméni on Bukayo Saka…
9:10 p.m : @Val13 He offers us a gala evening, Hugo Lloris! He would not be “freed from desire“, sometimes ?
21h08 : Lloris man of the match!!
21h07 : Enoooorme Hugo Lloris, who released a potato from Jude Bellingham at the entrance to the surface which was going very well. The Blues goalkeeper is in great shape tonight! And even when he misses his exit, on the corner that follows, he has a little luck for the ball to reach his hands.
9:06 p.m : Ousmane Dembelé receives a (deserved) yellow card for what we will call a forward tackle.
21h05 : @Val13 Fortunately, Theo Hernandez looks attacking when the second period begins! Still 1-0 for the Blues once morest the English !
9:04 p.m : It would be a shame to make Rabiot back down. It is a masterful first half!
9:04 p.m : et @Tim It can’t be worse than yesterday, for the Argentina-Netherlands match, which broke a record in terms of yellow cards.
9:04 p.m : Is it me? (I only watch football a little) or are there a lot of mistakes tonight?
9:04 p.m : . The lack of fluidity, the many stops, voluntary or by the referee, give the impression during this first half of a game of chess not really pleasant to watch. Only the result counts, as for the way….
9:02 p.m : ???????? https://t.co/MKbIio21Mu
9:01 p.m : “Hugo Lloris, worth better have it in picture”, the English must say to themselves at half-time. The French goalkeeper was decisive twice once morest Harry Kane.
20h59 : @Pauline We saw him hobble to get back to the locker room, and it’s true that it’s a matter of concern. Two solutions if he cannot resume: either we bring in Eduardo Camavinga in his place, or we move Adrien Rabiot back to left back …
20h59 : Theo Hernandez. Was it a big injury just before the break? It seems to me that there is no replacement…?
20h58 : You mention many (small) French towns where Moroccans celebrate their historic victory… but not Lyon? It swings well around here though…
20h55 : ????????????Moroccan supporters exult on the Champs. #PORMAR
20h55 : For the moment, it is the Moroccans who are celebrating on the Champs-Elysées… soon to be joined by the supporters of the Blues in an hour? Our comrade Adrien Hémard is on site.
20h53 : We take a breath for 15 minutes, we check the level of the oxygen tank, we regain strength. There are at least 45 minutes left, don’t give up!
20h53 : France have won the last 11 World Cup games where they have opened the scoring. The last time you can’t say it’s a failure, but it didn’t work, was the 2006 World Cup final. A dark story of a headbutt…
20h52 : Indeed, the English striker was discreet, with 24 balls touched, my comrade Andrea La Perna slips me (because our sports comrades are next to us and are preparing a mountain of articles for you at the end of the match) . But Kylian Mbappé barely 16 and Olivier Giroud 7… including the kickoff. Everything is relative, so…
20h52 : Is it me or does not see Foden?
20h50 : It’s halftime on this score of 1-0 for the Blues once morest England which would suit us very well!
20h50 : Moroccan supporters celebrate all over France the historic qualification of the Atlas Lions for the FIFA World Cup semi-finals. Marseilles, Lille, Nice, Poitiers… Here is a small tour of France of the scenes of jubilation following this new exploit.
20h57 : @Fouteuse So on the Blue side, only Aurélien Tchouameni and Jules Koundé are under threat of suspension in the semi-finals if they get a cracker. No worries at this stage for Antoine Griezmann.
20h47 : Pierre can you tell me once more the incidence of yellow cards for the semi-final and the final thank you?
20h45 : The FIFA radar has spoken: Aurélien Tchouameni’s cannonball was flashed at 108 km/h!
20h45 : @Wake up les Bleus Seen from the press box, the Blues give the impression of controlling the situation. We do not feel any particular panic in the defense, in particular. Raphaël Varane exudes a serenity that we had not yet seen in this World Cup.
20h44 : It’s an impression where you pedal in the semolina … it becomes stressful …
20h43 : Antoine Griezmann receives a severe yellow card for tripping Kyle Walker.
20h39 : It’s rare enough to be reported, superb tricolor combination on a free kick, Griezmann, Tchouaméni, Hernandez, who crosses back for Mbappé whose shot goes into the clouds of Al-Khor, the town where we are in 50km from Doha. 1-0 for the Blues40e minute.
20h35 : @LaLyonnaise Us twice, because of what happens on the pitch and because if we breathe too hard, we lose our internet connection 😉 (already three times since kick-off, we hope you don’t see it too much ).
20h34 : Huh we’re in apnea right?!!!
20h33 : @Etoile This is not compulsory, but left to the discretion of the selections. The English chose not to.
