France vs Morocco Highlights, FIFA World Cup 2026 Quarter-Final: FRA 2-0 MAR At Full-Time | Mbappe, Dembele Power Les Blues To Semis

France vs Morocco Live Score and Updates, FIFA World Cup 2026 Quarter-Final: Tournament favourites France and historic trailblazers Morocco battled to a 0-0 stalemate in an intense first half of their highly anticipated 2026 FIFA World Cup quarterfinal clash at Boston Stadium.

The biggest talking point of the initial 45 minutes was a penalty awarded to Les Bleus in the 27th minute following a lengthy VAR check. French talisman Kylian Mbappé stepped up to break the deadlock but his penalty kick was dramatically denied to keep the Atlas Lions level and send the Moroccan fans into raptures.

France dictated much of the tempo and tried to unleash their powerful attacking front but Morocco’s rearguard showed the same trademark resilience that characterised their route to the final eight. They shut down the space effectively, cutting off clear-cut chances for the likes of Michael Olise and Ousmane Dembélé.

Meanwhile, Morocco looked dangerous on the break, stretching the French lines with the pace of Achraf Hakimi.
