MOROCCO VS CANADA
Morocco will face Canada today in the final round of Group F of the World Cup. The match will be played at Al Thumama Stadium at 8:30 pm IST.
For Canada the Qatar World Cup is just a disappointment. They lost to Belgium in their first match and suffered a miserable defeat to Croatia in their second match and are at the bottom of the table with 0 points.
The Canadians will only be aiming for a consolation win today. On the other hand, Morocco is second in the table with 4 points from 2 matches. Therefore, if we can win today, we can become group champions. Even if the result is a draw, the knockout is guaranteed. Meanwhile, losing the match leaves them with little chance. Croatia just needs to beat Belgium. However, they may not be willing to take such a risk. Success is the goal.
They also have the confidence of beating strong Belgium in the last match. Anyway, expect a good match.
