Bengaluru, November 30: Canada and Morocco will lock horns in their final group stage game of the FIFA World Cup 2022. Canada have nothing but pride to play for as they clash against the Atlas Lions while Morocco have everything to play for.
Canada have given a good account of themselves in the World Cup this time around despite losing both their games. They were inspiring against Belgium despite their 1-0 loss but lost 4-1 to Croatia despite taking a very early lead.
Morocco, on the other hand, have turned many heads with his blistering performance in the World Cup. The north African giants contained Croatia to a draw in their first game and did exceptionally well to beat Belgium 2-0.
Morocco can secure their qualification with a win against Canada. Even a draw could be enough if Croatia manage to avoid defeat or loses by more than three goals.
