World Cup 2022: This is the eleventh Portuguese national team to face Morocco

Published on

To face Morocco, Fernando Santos will bet on Diogo Costa, Diogo Dalot, Pepe, Ruben Dias, Rafael Guerrero, Ruben Neves, Otavio, Bernardo Silva, Bruno Fernandez, Joao Felix and Gonzalo Ramos.

Thus, there is only one change compared to the match against Switzerland: Ruben Neves comes on for William Carvalho. And again, Cristiano Ronaldo starts the match on the substitute bench.

Morocco, which reached the quarter-finals after surprising Spain in the “eighth”, will present itself with two changes in the “eleven” that faced the Spaniards, with Al-Mazraoui and Akord injured, both of them, to be replaced by Al-Yamak and Atiyat Allah. .

The Africans will participate in the ranks of goalkeeper Bono, defenders Al-Hakimi, Al-Yamq, Sais, Attallah, midfielders Amrabat, Onahi and Amal, and attackers Ziyech, Boufal and Al-Nusairi.

The Portuguese football team is now looking to secure its place in the World Cup semi-finals after 16 years, having to beat a ‘surprising’ Morocco in the quarter-finals of the tournament, in Doha.

Portugal and Morocco will play from 18:00 local time (15:00 Lisbon time), at Al Thumama Stadium in Doha, in the match that will be led by Argentine referee Facundo Tello.
