I didn't see this break coming. Still about 10 minutes in the game and then undoubtedly some injury time. Would Morocco really save this and knock out Portugal? That is the surprise of the tournament. Yet they have already won against Belgium and it is not for nothing that they became group winners of their group in the group stage. This team is better than many think. Ziyech is very good at times and what about PSG defender Hakimi? They do have a few world players in their team. And a huge fighting spirit.
For ROnaldo it is his last world cup and they made him sit on the bench and sent him in last 20 min to take all the pressure.
No a good thing to deal with the legend - the Moroccan goalkeeper is very active not letting him make a goal
There a few good of chances for Ronaldo but he couldn't score, the best was when the ball didn't hit his head, too high. If the ball hit his head it might be the scored, Morocco defense is too tight this is what makes it difficult for the Portugal players. But yes, if they star player had played from the early, maybe Morocco would not have had a chance to score. No a good thing to deal with the legend - the Moroccan goalkeeper is very active not letting him make a goal
This is not a matter of experience or expertise or the name of a country, but luck,
Looks like Morocco is having luck at the 2022 World Cup. Morocco are the only underdog who are in the quarter-finals, now they have a 1-0 lead over Portugal.
It's hard to believe what Morocco have accomplished at the 2022 World Cup, but when luck strikes a team, things that were thought impossible can happen. Morocco is the only country from Africa left in the World Cup, I hope Morocco can qualify for the semifinals.
It's not luck in my opinion but it really is Morocco's ability to improve unexpectedly, the thing it deserves when he came out top of the group in the group qualifying round. watching this match means proving that Morocco is strong and able to compete with the giants of world football, with this I realize that Spain's defeat was not due to Morocco's sheer luck but it shows their current strength in the Qatar world cup.Looks like Morocco is having luck at the 2022 World Cup.

People in Africa waiting for happy news from Morocco that will enter the semi-finals against the winner of England vs France after this match.
how beautiful is this world cup? full of twists. for the moment Morocco is winning 1-0 who knows how long this result will last and who knows if they will be able to win this match! it would be a record for Morocco as they would become the first African nation to reach the semi-finals in a world cup
The goal that already made by morocco was actually unpredictable for sure. Morocco may win the match against portugal but 20 minutes remaining for portugal to make goal against morocco. It seems like that morocco has bigger chance for now to be qualified for the semi final. Morocco has been making my NFT goes to the moon on okex. that's good to see that. i hope morocco will able to go to the final for sure. Only short time remaining before the match will end and morocco is still leading the match 
Ronaldo's presence on the field has changed something in Portugal's attacking line obviously. He is the leader of this team above all else so it is good for the manager to have him in the game before it is too late. Ramos and Ronaldo both are playing now actually. They are just making all of their offensive moves to make a comeback.
Morocco have been really successful about defending them so far. Sometimes Portugal found crucial chances but couldn't take advantage of them. Fernandes wasted a huge chance a few minutes ago for example. I hope Portugal will score the equalizer as soon as possible.

But still they can't penetrate the Morocco defense. Morocco goal keeper is very alert that doesn't allow Portugal attempt on striking the goal to become successful. Only few minutes left on the clock and I bet Portugal can't overcome this result since Morocco defense is really solid. Portugal have the majority of ball possession and strike in goal but there's no positive result since the start of the second half.
I hope Portugal can comeback but I'm already celebrating now with my uderdog bet to Morocco.

Now that Brazil lost too, I'm rooting for the most improbable and craziest final of all: Croatia and Morocco.
It's insane, I know, but seeing so many "favorite" teams lose to teams that we didn't even imagine would make it this far, I see that the dispute of the final between these two teams is not so unlikely asism to happen.
Morocco is currently beating Portugal, so this is no longer an unlikely scenario to happen.
Croatia managed to dominate the first half of the game and demonstrate superiority to Brazil, managed to hold the score in the second half. With a lot of determination, they tied in overtime and took the decision to penalties.
There are no more small teams in this world cup, anyone can lift this trophy.

exactly as you said. in the second half now Morocco has become more defensive. and Portugal became more attacking.
Morocco has to really remain very defensive against the mounting pressure from Portugal, one goal can earn you a win in a game but can still be very dangerous to defend. Portugal is making changes to try to get a goal. A goal for Portugal can turn them on to go for the win. I am sure Portugal will not also want the game to get to penalties that they know Morocco already has a very good record of in this competition. Brazil was kicked out yesterday by Croatia, so far it is looking like we may see Portugal out today as well.This opportunity comes in life time . .. Ronaldo is getting frustrated - its the matter of time now - 10 more min and ROnaldo Career is in danger.

Brazil was kicked out yesterday by Croatia, so far it is looking like we may see Portugal out today as well.Yeah I think right now their strategy is to keep their defense on alert and close the room as much as possible for Portugal to attack. And go deep in counter and try to take a shot and find another goal. One goal more and that will be enough cushion for Morroco to advance. So far they have been really well and it's just some more minutes now to go.

Can you notice a change in the attacking force of Portugal since the introduction of Ronaldo in the second half? I think it was a big mistake for the coach of Portugal to have benched his star player who would have been the main focus of the Moroccan players and Portugal would have taken advantage to score goals because they will likely confused the Moroccan players with Ronaldo then make use of other players to get an easy goal.
I hope Portugal don't regret this mistake.

extraordinary. Morocco was able to break into Portugal's goal. and the temporary score is now 1-0 in favor of Morocco. totally surprising and unexpected. this is what makes Morocco really worth reckoning with even from the group stage. Portugal cannot be complacent. and if careless then this is what happens.
There were still 45 minutes left in the second half and it looked like Portugal would make the difference. Portugal are statistically superior to Morocco, especially in possession, but Morocco excel with the chances they create to score. Actually, Portugal had to avoid conceding first tby Morocco, but it was very difficult because Morocco kept pressing them. I was looking forward to the second half, but it looks like Morocco will be more defensive than the first half.
exactly as you said. in the second half now Morocco has become more defensive. and Portugal became more attacking. Cristiano Ronaldo had difficulty getting opportunities because he was constantly escorted by Moroccan players. so that more Portuguese attacks were launched from the right side. And opportunity after opportunity continues to get Portugal. This condition is a little dangerous for Morocco. Morocco should if you want to stay superior then you have to continue to use the strategy like in the first half, namely more attacks.
Well, Morocco scores at the end of the first half, Santos reacts and gives Ronaldo a chance. Morocco spends almost all the time in defense and for Portugal this is not a very good sign, because if we look at the results of the previous matches of Morocco, they have not missed a single goal from Croatia, Belgium and Spain. If they manage to do the same against Portugal, then we could see Morocco in the semi-finals.

I disagree with you the World Cup is not all about luck. If it is luck why is it only Morocco that is lucky. It is about what people are playing.Looks like Morocco is having luck at the 2022 World Cup. Morocco are the only underdog who are in the quarter-finals, now they have a 1-0 lead over Portugal.

How can you say that Crotia was lucky in last World Cup to get to the finals and this time around they are also lucky, is luck from their country? It is what you're playing don't undermine the effort of Moroccoans, let it not look as if they are joking. this guys are playing football and each and every one of them are good and the team has a very beautiful bonding that is football for you

Now they are sending Ronaldo for 20 mins when Morocco is about to win the match - 51 min - MAR 1 And ROR - 0
At the Momnet - PRO has been given tough time by Morrocon - For them this World cup is something to die for.
With Morocco leading Portugal 1:0 and Ronaldo absent but still making an impact, I have a good feeling that Morocco will defeat Portugal. Messi's performance is superior to Ronaldo's, and tomorrow's match between France and England will be difficult to predict and possibly go to penalties. I am excited to see my boy Saka on the field giving an incredible performance. Good luck to my favorite team's both France and England but only one win is recorded.
North African representative Morocco will face Portugal soon. According to the news I have read, Cristiano Ronaldo will be among the substitutes in this match. The legend of Cristiano Ronaldo is slowly coming to an end. Because he is not played in the last matches so as not to disturb the rhythm of the team. Coach Fernando Santos is making bold decisions. It would not be a fair decision to play him in this match. Because Goncalo Ramos played very well in the last match.
IMO. what Fernando Santos did was appropriate, considering that Ronaldo did not contribute much to this world cup. the only goal he scored was from the penalty spot. by the way, as I said that Marocco will put up a fight. 1-0 advantage for Marocco, let's see what Portugal will do in the second half.Ronaldo may not have contributed much to this World Cup. But it should not be forgotten that Ronaldo's contribution is the biggest behind the Portugal team's qualification for the World Cup. Also, if Ronaldo is in the squad, the players of the team get a bit more advantage. Because opposition defenders are more focused on stopping Ronaldo when Ronaldo is in the squad, Portugal's other players get much space to score. So if Ronaldo is in the squad, it is an extra advantage for Portugal. However, Portugal fell behind 1-0 in the first half. It is very difficult for Portugal to make a comeback in this match. Because Morocco's defense is very strong. Morocco conceded only one goal in this World Cup. That too against a weak team Canada.
