French President Emmanuel Macron will journey to Qatar to attend the World Cup semi-final between France and Morocco on Wednesday, French Sports Minister Amelie Oudea-Castera mentioned on Sunday. France, match winners in 2018, will play Morocco for a spot within the remaining after they beat England 2-1 and the North Africans beat Portugal 1-0 in Saturday’s earlier quarter-finals.

“The details of the trip remain to be settled, of course, but he had made this commitment,” she mentioned on Franceinfo radio. Macron’s workplace had mentioned final month that he would look ahead to the semi-finals to go to the World Cup if the crew reached that stage.
