“To our Moroccan friends: congratulations on this great achievement. You are making football history,” Macron wrote on his social media accounts.
The French president attended the France-Morocco game to support his country’s team.
The national team lost to France 0-2 in the World Cup semi-final game.

Morocco remained the only Arab and African to reach such an advanced level in this international sporting event.
