Morocco’s national team for blind football snatched the bronze medal at the Tokyo Paralympic Games on Saturday, after beating the Chinese team 4-0.

Superstar Zouhair Snisla shone in the game by scoring all 4 goals of the game, leading the national team to victory.

The gold medal match will be played between defending champions Brazil and Rio 2016 bronze medalists Argentina later today.

This marks Morocco’s 8th Paralympic medal after Abdeslam Hili’s gold, the silver of Fouzia El Kassioui, Yousra Karim, Mohamed Amguoun and Azeddine Nouiri, and the bronze of Hayat El Garaa and Saida Amoudi.

King Mohammed VI sent congratulatory messages to the Moroccan champions who were crowned in Tokyo.
