Summary
ITV said Mark Pougatch will host its 9 p.m. BST coverage of France vs Morocco from the network’s Brooklyn studio, with the quarter-final played at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough.
Three former players—Ian Wright, Roy Keane and Patrick Vieira—will serve as pundits, while Jon Champion handles lead commentary alongside Ally McCoist.
Vieira’s inclusion breaks from ITV’s frequent Wright-Keane-Gary Neville combination for major matches, adding a French perspective before a tie with semi-final and final stakes.
Morocco reached the last eight after beating the Netherlands on penalties, while France enter the match chasing a third straight World Cup final.
