France defeated Morocco 2-0 in the 2026 World Cup quarterfinals with second-half goals from Kylian Mbappé and Ousmane Dembélé, advancing to the semifinals for the third straight tournament.
The match took place at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, with Argentine referee Facundo Tello officiating. France controlled the game despite a scoreless first half that included a Mbappé penalty saved by goalkeeper Bono.
Mbappé opened the scoring early in the second half and Dembélé doubled the lead six minutes later. Both teams finished with 50 percent possession, but France outshot Morocco 22-5.
France had reached the quarterfinals after defeating Paraguay in the round of 16 and will face Spain or Belgium in the semifinals.
