However, miracles on the football field often come from factors other than strength.
The details of the game are revealed: the difference between a penalty mistake and a watershed
Morocco lined up 433 in the game, and South Africa, a disparity of quality, opened the scoring in the second half. Morocco's defensive line, which had been excellent in the group stage, was breached in the 57th minute, and Makgopa's goal changed the situation dramatically. Morocco made changes but missed the best chance of equalising when a penalty was missed by Achraf on 82 minutes. Amrabat was also sent off for a late minute for a foul, providing South Africa with a direct free-kick. The watershed moment of this game was Morocco's mistakes at crucial moments, while South Africa seized every opportunity.
Behind the South African miracle: tactics, teamwork and perseverance
South Africa's victory was no accident, as they showed excellent tactical set-up and teamwork. In the game, South Africa showed a compact defense and successfully defused a number of attacks from Morocco. Meanwhile, Makgopa's goal showcased their skilful teamwork and individual ability in attack.

This kind of team perseverance and execution is the key to South Africa's successful counterattack.

This requires deep reflection on the part of the team and the coaching staff.
