…Dumps co-hosts Canada out 3-0
Morocco reached the World Cup quarter-finals following a 3-0 thrashing that dumped co-hosts Canada out of the 2026 World Cup on Saturday night.
Azzedine Ounahi’s brilliant double and a late strike from Soufiane Rahimi proved enough to put the Atlas Lions safely into the quarter-finals to face either France or Paraguay.
The win lifts the African representative as the first team to reach the World Cup quarter-finals, with cohosts Canada exiting the competition.
However, Morocco’s star striker Mohamed Ouahbi’s suffered a major blow after going down with injury that forced him off after 22 minutes, with Rahimi replacing the Bayern Munich-bound forward.
