The Moroccan national team’s exciting journey in the “Kings League” Cup, currently held in Italy, came to an end with a 2-1 loss to Colombia in the semifinals on Friday evening in Milan.

Morocco took an early lead through the tournament’s top scorer in the third minute, but Colombia quickly responded with two goals—one in the seventh minute and another in the 19th.

A potential equalizer by Morocco’s midfielder was disallowed after a VAR review, sealing the match in favor of Colombia.

The win secured Colombia’s spot in the final, where they will face the winner of the Brazil vs. Mexico match.

Morocco, relying on a squad featuring seasoned players, had previously beaten the U.S. in the quarterfinals after overcoming Japan and Ukraine in earlier rounds.

The Kings League features seven players per side, including a goalkeeper, and uses an innovative format with two 20-minute halves and unlimited substitutions.
