Rooting For The Underdog Is Easy; Stopping Kylian Mbappé And France Is Not

France beat Morocco 2-0 in the quarterfinal — same scoreline as 2022 — with Kylian Mbappé scoring his eighth goal to tie the Golden Boot race.
Morocco struggled badly in attack (no shot on target until the 82nd minute) despite a big penalty save by goalkeeper Yassine Bounou.
The tone: France look dominant and are being called “this World Cup to lose” as they wait for the Spain/Belgium winner.
