Barca has been charged with corruption by Spanish prosecutors for payments between 2001 and 2018 to the company of former refereeing chief Jose Maria Enriquez Negreira, totalling around $7.8 million
After Saudi Arabia and Japan, Morocco produced a major upset in the Qatar World Cup with an unforgettable 2-0 victory at the Al Thumama Stadium on Sunday.
Abdelhamid Sabiri scored a brilliant goal from a free kick in the 73rd minute and Zakaria Aboukhlal added a second in the injury time to give Morocco only their second win in a World Cup game since their debut in 1970.
Backed by their noisy fans, Morocco dominated the star-studded Belgians, enjoying the lion’s share of possession.
Belgium, a team featuring bug names like Kevin du Bruyne and Eden Hazrd, had no answer to the Moroccan brilliance as they went down tamely.
The Moroccans are now leading Group F with four points from two matches, while the Belgians are in second place with three points.
