WORLD CUP | El Aynaoui Says He Is in Touch With Gasperini After Morocco Reach Quarterfinals

Neil El Aynaoui said he is in touch with Gian Piero Gasperini after Morocco thrashed Canada 3-0 to reach the World Cup quarterfinals, according to Yahoo Sports. El Aynaoui said Canada started strongly and surprised Morocco in the first half, but Morocco found solutions after the break to become more dangerous. Morocco will next face Didier Deschamps’ France, who beat Paraguay last night on a Kylian Mbappé penalty. The quarterfinal is scheduled for Thursday, July 9th at 10:00 PM, and will pit Morocco’s El Aynaoui and Salah-Eddine against France’s Koné.
