The 2022 World Cup is in the first of two rest days ahead of the quarter-finals today, but that doesn’t mean that there isn’t plenty of news from the team camps in Qatar to dive into. There will be regular updates throughout the day as all eight nations prepare for their respective last-eight clashes later this week.
The final round-of-16 action on Tuesday turned heads as Morocco stunned one of the tournament favourites Spain, dumping them out on penalties. Walid Regragui’s side have now finished above Croatia in Group F and beaten Belgium and Spain while only conceding one goal on their way to the quarter-finals.
Morocco’s reward for the historic result is a meeting with Portugal, who discovered their mojo after Fernando Santos dropped Joao Cancelo and Cristiano Ronaldo against Switzerland. Goncalo Ramos’ World Cup debut hat-trick helped steer them to a 6-1 triumph, cementing their status as tournament contenders.
They joined Argentina, the Netherlands, Brazil, Croatia, England and France in the next round ahead of the clashes to be played on Friday and Saturday. But there is plenty of news to tuck into in the meantime, so stay tuned as Express Sport provides all the latest.
