The FIFA World Cup 2026 knockout stage delivered more drama on July 4 as Morocco and France secured their places in the quarter-finals with contrasting victories. Morocco cruised to a 3-0 win over co-hosts Canada, thanks to a brace from Azzedine Ounahi and a stoppage-time strike by Soufiane Rahimi at Houston Stadium (NRG Stadium). Later, France edged Paraguay 1-0 at Philadelphia Stadium (Lincoln Financial Field), where Kylian Mbappé's second-half penalty proved enough to send Les Bleus into the last eight.Here's a look at the best moments from Saturday's Round of 16 action: ReutersSoccer Football - FIFA World Cup 2026 - Round of 16 - Canada v Morocco - Fans gather in Vancouver - Vancouver, Canada - July 4, 2026 Canada fans in Vancouver react to the match REUTERS/Lee Smith ReutersSoccer Football - FIFA World Cup 2026 - Round of 16 - Canada v Morocco - Fans gather in Vancouver - Vancouver, Canada - July 4, 2026 Canada fans in Vancouver watch the match REUTERS/Lee Smith ReutersSoccer Football - FIFA World Cup 2026 - Round of 16 - Paraguay v France - Philadelphia Stadium, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, U.S. - July 4, 2026 A Paraguay fan inside the stadium before the match IMAGN IMAGES via Reuters/Kyle RossAPFans react during the World Cup round of 16 soccer match between Paraguay and France in Philadelphia, Saturday, July 4, 2026.
