French Montana has a whole lot of pride when it comes to his home country of Morocco. French has been able to showcase this pride throughout Morocco's historic run at the World Cup. Last weekend, Morocco became the first African nation to make it to the semi-finals at the World Cup.

However, the team's run ultimately came to an end yesterday as they lost to France, 2-0. Overall, it was still an amazing tournament for Morocco. They showed the entire world that they can be a soccer powerhouse. Consequently, they have gained the respect of teams like France, Spain, Portugal, and many others.
