World Cup Gets Back Into Action with France-Morocco Quarterfinal

France seeks a third straight World Cup final as Morocco arrives with momentum after a 3-0 win over Canada.

  • On Thursday, July 9, France faces Morocco in a World Cup quarterfinal at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, with the match favored to showcase France's dominance.
  • The teams previously met in the 2022 World Cup semifinals in Qatar, where France won 2-0; Morocco was the first African team to reach that stage.
