🏆👉 Morocco defeated Belgium in the FIFA World Cup Group F on Sunday 27 November 2022 at the Al Thumama Stadium in Al Thumama, Qatar. This is a significant victory in terms of qualification because Morocco impose themselves on Belgium by momentarily conquering the first place in group F! In the second half, the decisive goals: Sabiri broke the deadlock with a free kick, on which Belgium goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois was guilty late, in the added time Morocco found the goal that closed the game with Aboukhlal who anticipated everyone at the near post by placing the ball under the crossbar.

The frustration after losing was huge that Belgium goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, one of the best in the world, had a bad day losing control. Courtous vented his anger against the bench, throwing a powerful punch when he leaves the field, under the gaze amazed by field workers and photographers. Belgium was defeated 2-0 by Morocco, complicating the race towards the Round of 16 of Qatar 2022.
