What each result meant
In 1994, Belgium's narrow win in Orlando gave them a strong start in Group F at the USA World Cup. Morocco, appearing in only their third World Cup, were unable to prevent the defeat and ultimately went out in the group stage. Belgium went on to reach the second round before being eliminated by Germany.
The 2022 rematch in Qatar produced a very different outcome. Morocco, backed by a passionate crowd and driven by standout performances, defeated a star-studded Belgium side that included Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku. That win helped Morocco top Group F and launch their extraordinary run all the way to the semi-finals — the first African nation ever to reach that stage of a World Cup. Belgium, widely regarded as one of the pre-tournament favourites, crashed out in the group stage.
