Morocco advances to the World Cup quarterfinals after beating co-hosts Canada 3-0 in the round of 16. Multiple reports describe the match as a decisive victory in which Morocco controls key moments and converts scoring chances. Azzedine Ounahi is credited with scoring twice for Morocco, including goals late in the match, as Canada fails to find a response. Coverage also notes Morocco’s continuation into the quarterfinals beyond their first appearance, with one outlet highlighting that this is their second straight quarterfinal appearance. Another source adds that Soufiane Rahimi scores a late goal to complete the scoreline, with the final strike arriving deep into stoppage time. The win makes Morocco the first African team to reach the quarterfinals more than once, and at least one report links this achievement to Morocco’s earlier milestone of reaching the semifinals in 2022. With Canada eliminated, Morocco moves on to the next stage of the tournament.
