The fans of the Morocco national football team exploded in joy as they became the first African and Arab country to reach a World Cup semifinal. The moment filled the stadium in Qatar with a loud roar and unleashed cheers, cries, dances, and songs on the streets at home. The 1-0 historic victory over Portugal was celebrated further afield, with elated fans from Abidjan in Ivory Coast to Riyadh in Saudi Arabia cheering what they saw as a historic win for both African and the Arab Nations.

To the rhythmic playing of a horn and banging of drums, men and women jumped up and down waving the Moroccan flag – part of a sea of people who had filled Rabat’s city center, raising a worth-watching zeal of triumph. “They made us happy and proud, and they proved that they could make it to the final. Why not? We are so proud of this team that is supported by Africa and Arabs,” said Siham Motahir, a young lady in Rabat, where cafes were filled with joyous fans to watch the game.

The win over Portugal led by Cristiano Ronaldo is Morocco’s third over a highly ranked European team in the tournament, a run that had brought extreme joy both in Morocco and for Africans and Arab countries. African Union President Macky Sall wrote on Twitter, using capital letters to emphasize his excitement that went away from his hands: “HISTORIC! AND FANTASTIC! THE ATLAS LIONS ARE QUALIFIED FOR THE SEMI-FINALS OF THE WORLD CUP! BRAVO MOROCCO,”.
