France beat Morocco 2-0 in the 2026 FIFA World Cup quarter-final at Boston Stadium on 9 July 2026, booking a spot in the semi-finals.
Kylian Mbappe 60', Ousmane Dembele 66' (France).
Morocco held firm for the opening hour but couldn't create clear chances, with keeper Yassine "Bono" Bounou standing tall to keep the score level early on. The deadlock broke just after the hour mark when Mbappe struck to move level with Lionel Messi atop the Golden Boot race, drawing his 20th career World Cup goal. Six minutes later, Ousmane Dembele doubled the lead with a strike that took a deflection past Bono. Morocco pushed for a way back in the closing stages but managed just one shot on target all match, from captain Achraf Hakimi in the 83rd minute. France, unbeaten and yet to need extra time all tournament, advance to their third straight World Cup semi-final. Watch the full France vs Morocco highlights and both goals above.
