France, the 2018 champions and 2022 runners-up, will be aiming to make it three successive semifinal appearances as they take on African side Morocco, who are aiming to make history by becoming the first African nation to reach two successive FIFA World Cup semis, after having reached the semis in the 2022 Qatar edition. During the clash against Morocco, scheduled for July 11 at 1:30 AM as per IST, Olise stands at risk of getting a one-match ban if he gets another yellow card, which will make him miss a potential semifinal clash.
