Morocco v Haiti

It is all over here at the Atlanta Stadium, as Morocco survive multiple scares to defeat eliminated Haiti 4-2, and qualify for the Round of 32. Haiti took the lead inside the opening 10 minutes, when Joseph found space in the six-yard box, before his effort ended in the back of the net but given as a Bounou own-goal. Hakimi equalised for Morocco, as he bundled the ball in after Placide’s poor stop, before Isidor put Haiti back ahead. His strike was arguably the goal of the tournament so far, with his shot flying straight into the top-left corner from outside the box. Less than two minutes later, Saibari made it three in three, as he equalised with a clever finish. It took until the 78th minute for Morocco to finally take the lead, when Rahimi controlled the ball from a corner, before firing past Placide, with some help from a deflection. In the dying minutes, Yassine made it 4-2. Rahimi done brilliantly to keep the ball in play, before unselfishly teeing up Yassine and secure the three points. Despite Haiti’s attempts, Morocco certainly deserved to win the match, accumulating 3.26 xG compared to Haiti’s 0.66 xG. That is now the end of Haiti’s second World Cup, but it is only the beginning for Morocco, who have finished second in Group C, and will face the winners of Group F, a group in which the Netherlands currently lead. Thank you all for tuning into a modern-day classic, have a great day wherever you are!

FULL-TIME: MOROCCO 4-2 HAITI

Amrabat makes his way off as Haiti get us back underway.

We have a late stop in play, with Amrabat down with a head injury.

BRILLIANT EFFORT FROM NAZON! What a strike, as he arrows the free-kick on target, forcing Bounou into a strong diving stop. Great strike, equally great stop!

Haiti have won a free-kick on the edge of the box, after Nazon goes down. Chance for late drama...
