Tonight, the Atlas Lions have another opportunity to rewrite history.

Their only competitive meeting came in the 2022 World Cup semi-final, where Les Bleus secured a 2-0 victory to end Morocco’s historic run in Qatar.

France hold the upper hand in previous meetings between the two nations, remaining unbeaten in all six encounters (W4, D2).

History against France

Having become the first African nation to reach a World Cup semi-final in Qatar four years ago, Morocco are now aiming to repeat that achievement and avenge their 2-0 defeat to France in the 2022 semi-finals.

Morocco, meanwhile, continue to carry Africa’s hopes after an impressive run through the tournament. The Atlas Lions dismantled co-hosts Canada 3-0 in the Round of 16 and remain unbeaten in their last 10 matches since the Africa Cup of Nations final (W7, D3).

Victory would see Les Bleus reach a third consecutive World Cup semi-final, while Deschamps is set to equal the record for the most matches managed at the FIFA World Cup.

France arrive in Boston as one of the tournament favourites after overcoming Paraguay 1-0 in the Round of 16. Didier Deschamps’ side are unbeaten in 12 competitive matches (W11, D1) and have won each of their last seven.
