⭐ Key Players

• Kylian Mbappe scored at 59', assisted at 65', and missed a penalty at 27' in the 2-0 win.
• Ousmane Dembele doubled the lead at 65', finishing Mbappe's assist to seal the 2-0 result.
• Desire Doue supplied the assist for Mbappe's 59' opener before making way at 76'.
• Yassine Bounou made 7 saves, keeping Morocco alive before France pulled clear.

The first major twist came in the 27th minute when a VAR check awarded France a penalty. Mbappe failed to take it, sending his effort wide at 27:48, and Morocco stayed level through the rest of the first half. That scoreline held until 59:18, when Desire Doue fed Mbappe for the opener and finally broke the resistance.

Morocco responded with changes just after the hour, sending on Sofyan Amrabat and Soufiane Rahimi, but Issa Diop's yellow card at 62:33 summed up the pressure building on the back line. France struck again at 65:21, this time with Mbappe turning provider for Dembele to make it 2-0 and put the match out of reach.

The closing highlights were mostly from the benches as Warren Zaire-Emery, Jean-Philippe Mateta, Bradley Barcola and Malo Gusto were introduced for France, while Morocco also rotated in search of a way back. The stats underlined the score and the result: France created the clearer moments, and Bounou's save count kept the margin respectable.
