Or not. After the goal they took the players off the field because Morrocan fans invaded the pitch ... two hours later they disallowed the goal and Morocco won. Farcical.
Wait what??? Really? On what basis did they disallow?
This sounds almost as bad as the 1972 Olympic Basketball Final.

VAR determined the goal was offsides. So they brought the teams back out two hours later after the stadium had been cleared to play the final 3 minutes.

The USA game was frustrating. We really did bring it to them and the 3-0 result is not particularly close to the reality of the match. We hit the post twice and forced a huge save another time. France hit two goals from well outside the box and then got a clean header off a corner.
I think xG was something like 1.3 to 1.1 favoring France.
