Morocco became the first African team ever to qualify for the World Cup semi-finals in Qatar after beating Portugal 1-0 on Saturday.
Youssef En-Nesyri's first-half header in the 42 minute secured a historic win for Morocco, who will play defending champions France or England for a place in the final.
En-Nesyri towered high in the sky to head home just before halftime, and the Moroccan defense took over from there, stifling the Portugal attack for the full 90 minutes.
With the win, Morocco are the first African nation to reach the semifinals of a FIFA World Cup.
