After being knocked out the World Cup in the quarter-finals by France, Jordan Henderson and Trent Alexander-Arnold have missed the opportunity to share the pitch with a reported transfer target for their club Liverpool.
Unexpectedly, Morocco have advanced to the semi-finals, becoming the first African country to do so. They’ve stunned two big nations in Spain and Portugal to reach this point and they face another big challenge in France later tonight.
France, of course, got the better of an England side featuring Liverpool captain Henderson on Saturday. Had Gareth Southgate's side progressed, Henderson and possibly his Reds and Three Lions team-mate Alexander-Arnold would have been facing a Morocco side this evening for whom Sofyan Amrabat has starred in Qatar.
