Shakira reacts to Morocco’s historic win over Portugal at FIFA World Cup

Shakira reacts to Morocco’s historic win over Portugal at FIFA World Cup. Shakira made a statement in response to Cristiano Ronaldo’s removal from Portugal’s squad for the FIFA World Cup in 2022.

Morocco created history by getting Cristiano Ronaldo of Portugal through the elimination stage and into the 2022 World Cup semifinals. The Atlas Lions were the first African team to advance all the way to the competition’s semifinals.

Shakira praised the African squad for their triumph in a number of social media posts. Youssef En-Nesyri was credited with the game’s lone goal, which he scored in the 42nd minute. He took advantage of Ruben Dias and Diogo Costa’s presence in the Portugal box in order to score the goal.

In the middle of the game, Cristiano Ronaldo came off the bench to enter. Ronaldo, who replaced another player in the 51st minute and is now 37 years old, was unable to find the back of the net. As a direct result of the defeat, the FIFA World Cup as well as the five-time Ballon d’Or winner’s reign came to an end.

The well-known musician Shakira responded to Morocco’s victory by saying the following: The Colombian singer-songwriter hailed the Atlas Lions for their outstanding accomplishment in a tweet headlined “This time for Africa,” adding that she appreciated their dedication.

Everyone was taken aback by the performance of the Qatari team led by Walid Regragui. They reigned over countries such as Belgium, Spain, and the nation that is now known as Portugal. During this year’s World Cup in 2022, the Atlas Lions have let up just one goal to their opponents. They have not yet suffered a loss heading into the quarterfinal match against France.

This time for Africa!! 👏🇲🇦 #WorldCup
