World Cup 2026: Canada takes on Morocco in Round of 16 with more history on the line -- Live Updates
World Cup 2026 live updates show Morocco taking a 1-0 lead over Canada in the second half of their Round of 16 match, with Azzedine Ounahi delivering the decisive goal. Ounahi scored in the 50th minute on a free-kick set play, with the assist from Achraf Hakimi from the left side of the pitch. Morocco earned the free kick after a tackle by Luc de Fougerolles, who received a yellow card. Canada struggled to find the finishing touch after looking more threatening in the first half, where it generated more corners and shots. The match also turned tough for Morocco when Ismael Saibari left at the 21st minute due to a hamstring injury. Seven yellow cards have been shown, including four to the Moroccans. The game takes place in Houston, Texas, and Canada’s hopes hinge in part on how much Alphonso Davies can play, expected again as a substitute. Morocco are FIFA’s sixth-ranked side and the reigning African Cup of Champions winners.
