2022 FIFA World Cup - quarter and semi-finals : how did the Tournament almunis perform ?

After each round, find the recap of what the players who have passed through the Maurice Revello Tournament and are competing in the World Cup did.

THEY SHINED

A first for 20 years. By qualifying for their second consecutive World Cup final, the French team has achieved a historic feat. Brazil (1994 - 1998 - 2002) was the last team to reach the final of a World Cup at least twice in a row. The French team beat England in the quarter-finals last Saturday after a crazy and intense match (2-1). If Aurelien Tchouameni and Olivier Giroud were the goal scorer, it's definitely Hugo Lloris who was the man of the match. The best goalkeeper of the 2006 Maurice Revello Tournament made a number of excellent saves to keep out England's attempts, particularly those of Harry Kane (6 saves in total). This was a great way to celebrate his 143rd cap, a figure that makes him the most capped player in Les Bleus' history. The French captain then repeated the feat in the semi-final against Morocco on Wednesday (2-0). The former Lyon man also saved a fine shot from Ounahi in the first half. Lloris and his team-mates will face Argentina on Sunday in a final that promises to be a thriller.


Another goalkeeper who has shone in the last few rounds is Yassine Bono. The Moroccan goalkeeper had a perfect game in the quarter-final against Portugal on Saturday (1-0). The Moroccan goalkeeper, who took part in the Tournament in 2012, was imperial in his goal, signing a new clean sheet to send his team to the semi-finals. It was a historic performance for an African team. The Sevillian could not do anything against France in the semi-final, but like his Atlas Lions teammates, he has marked this World Cup and the history of the Moroccan national team.
