Dubai Can’t Stop Celebrating Morocco’s HUGE Win For The Arab World And Africa
Pan-Arabism: an ideology that refers to the cultural and political unification of all Arab countries.
That’s exactly what we’ve all been feeling since last night when Morocco scored 3-0 in the penalty shootout against Spain, becoming the first Arab nation to enter the World Cup quarter-finals!
The win is being celebrated across all Arab nations for two reasons… it is the first Arab national team to enter the quarter-finals, which happened while playing at the first World Cup held in an Arabian country
This World Cup is truly a legacy that will be remembered for years to come.
