“When you love playing for your nation there’s no limit to what you can achieve and these [Moroccan] guys put in everything and got their reward,” Okocha told SuperSport.

“That’s the beauty of the game. You stand a chance if you get it right. Forget about stars, forget about what you have achieved before. What counts is the game in front of you and they have shown that if you get it right, you are capable of beating anybody.

“They have team spirit. They haven’t got superstars like Ronaldo or Messi in their squad but what they got is unity. What they have got is bringing out the best from each other. They challenge each other on being your brother’s keeper, bringing out the best in each other.”

The North Africans will face France at the Al Bayt Stadium on Wednesday.
