This Thursday, July 9, the quarterfinals of the 2026 World Cup will begin. France and Morocco will be the first teams to seek a ticket to the next round. Boston Stadium will be the setting in which this match will take place.

France reaches this round after winning all its matches. The European team scored 13 goals and only conceded 2 goals. The “Galo” team continues its perfect pace in this World Cup.

The opponent will be Morocco, a combative team that has overcome complex obstacles before this match. The African team drew with Brazil, defeated the Netherlands in the round of 32 and then comfortably beat Canada, one of the hosts.

This is a duel with a very recent precedent in World Cups. In the 2022 Qatar World Cup, both teams met in the semifinal. At this stage, France took the 2-0 victory at the Al Bayt Stadium, located in the city of Al Khor, Qatar. The authors of the goals were Theo Hernández and Randal Kolo Muani.
