Morocco, which faces 2018 World Cup champions France in the semifinal, is the first Arab — and African — country to make it this far in the tournament, which is hosted by Qatar.
Araqi and some of his friends will watch the game in Montreal’s “Little Maghreb” neighbourhood, which is made up of a large contingent of immigrants from Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia.
Thirty-three-year-old Bilal Mammes, born in Montreal to Moroccan parents, said that making the semifinal has put Morocco on the international soccer map. He said that the match is even more special because of the support Morocco has received from Arab and African nations.
