Sofyan Amrabat has made a name for himself on the global stage, becoming one of the players of the tournament, and will have another opportunity to shine.

Morocco, given the side of the bracket they have come from in the tournament draw, will be the ‘away’ side, with France the ‘home’ team. As we have seen, Morocco are not to be underestimated.
