Morocco have made history by becoming the first African nation to reach the World Cup semi-finals after beating Portugal 1-0 at the Al Thumama Stadium.

Youssef En-Nesyri's first half header was enough to see Walid Regragui's side through, and to send Cristiano Ronaldo and co. home from Qatar.

The Atlas Lions once again showcased their incredible defensive solidity, despite having a myriad of injuries to deal with, especially in their back four.

Portugal were restricted to very few chances throughout the 90 minutes and even the introduction of Ronaldo early in the second half did little to change the match.

In what has been a World Cup for the underdogs, Morocco now join Croatia as two brilliant dark horses to reach the last four.
