Morocco continue to upset football royalties as they stunned Brazil 2-1 in a friendly international match on Saturday. The north African side recorded a first-ever win over the five-time world champions.
Midfielder Sofiane Boufal, a former Southampton star, but now playing with Al Rayyan in Qatar, gave Morocco the lead after 29 minutes. He scored with a powerful turn and drive from a pass by Bilal El Khannous. Brazil skipper Casemiro levelled in the 67th minute when his weak shot was fumbled by goalkeeper Yassine Bounou.
But on-loan Sampdoria midfielder Abdelhamid Sabiri struck the winner with a volley in the 79th minute. In the end, Morocco showed that becoming the first Arab or African nation to reach the World Cup semi-finals last year was no fluke.
Fans are reportedly not very happy with the result of this friendly. Fans reportedly showed their discomfort on social media. One fan said, “Brazil lost 2-1 to Morocco. What a shame“. Another fan said, “Brazil seems to have lost its touch since 2000’s “. And another fan said, “Brazil lost against two African Nations in just four months. They should leave football and play cricket or something else now”.
