Morocco will be without midfielder Ismael Saibari for its World Cup quarterfinal against France. Multiple reports say Saibari has sustained a hamstring injury and will miss the match in Boston/Foxborough on Thursday. Morocco’s coach Mohamed Ouahbi is quoted saying that, aside from Saibari, the rest of the squad is available for selection. The injury is described as having been picked up last week, and it has sidelined him ahead of the decisive knockout game. As a result, Morocco’s team news focuses on the absence of Saibari, with no other reported injuries affecting availability. The quarterfinal will therefore proceed with Morocco adjusting its midfield options to cover for the unavailable player.
