The Atlas Lions tried to remedy this shock and advanced to threaten the roosters with a shot by Ezzedine Onahi, which Hugo Lloris pushed away, and another attempt by Hakim Ziyech.
Walid Regragui, the coach of the Moroccan national team, was forced to replace captain Romain Sayes due to his injury, to replace Salim Amlah in the 21st minute.
The French response was strong and dangerous, as Giroud’s shot was blocked by the right post, and Mbappe missed an outright one.
In the last minutes of the first half, Griezmann played a corner kick, which Raphael Varane met with his foot next to the post.
Jawad Yamik almost equalized with a wonderful scissor, which Loris pushed away with difficulty, with the help of the post, to bounce back to Sofiane Boufal, who shot outside the goal.
