Morocco Downs Canada to Reach Quarters

Morocco defeated Canada 3-0 in the Round of 16, with Azzedine Ounahi scoring twice to book a quarterfinal date with France or Paraguay.

On July 4th in front of 72,000 fans in Texas, the Atlas Lions survived an intense first half against Canada before taking control in the second half. Ounahi's goals in the 50th minute and later in the match secured Morocco's victory and ended Canada's historic World Cup run.

Canada, playing in their first knockout stage, put up a strong fight early with 13 touches in the Moroccan box in the first half. However, Morocco adjusted at halftime and played smartly in the second half, staying compact and capitalizing on counterattacks to secure their place in the quarterfinals. fishroad-app.com
