Canada v Morocco LIVE: Latest team news and updates from World Cup last-16

Alphonso Davies was able to feature off the bench for Canada in their round of 16 tie, and could press for increased involvement here.

It may be that he is kept to an impact role as a substitute after real injury woe in the last couple of years.

Predicted Canada XI: Crepeau; Johnston, Bombito, Cornelius, Laryea; Buchanan, Saliba, Eustaquio, Shaffelburg; David, Oluwaseyi.

When Morocco knocked out Netherlands in the last 32, police clashed with Dutch supporters in the Hague.

The Dutch city saw sporadic unrest in areas with a significant Moroccan community. Police in the Hague reported that “heavy fireworks were set off” in the Schilderswijk district, with officers being targeted by fireworks and stones.

Our man Kieran Jackson was on the ground in Los Angeles to see Canada’s last-32 win over South Africa:

“When Canada’s concluding moment does eventually arrive this summer, Stephen Eustaquio would be forgiven for not wanting to leave the bright sunshine of California.

“The Canadian midfielder, contracted to Porto, joined Los Angeles FC in February on a four-month loan deal, desperately hunting minutes on the pitch ahead of the World Cup.

“A much-admired member of the squad, Eustaquio tragically lost his mother to brain cancer in April 2023 and his father to a heart attack one year later.

“Now, the 29-year-old is the match-winner in his new home away from home, sending his country through to the last-16 with a dramatic stoppage-time strike.”

It feels like something of a contradiction for a professional photographer not to be on the world’s most-popular photo-sharing platform, but it was actually a few days after the moment had passed before Shaun Botterill was told of the significance of a simple push of his finger.

Stationed at the end of the Lusail Stadium packed with Argentina supporters at the 2022 World Cup final, Lionel Messi has just led his country to world football’s most prestigious prize and claimed the piece of silverware he has most desired. A jigsaw has its final piece, the trophy has been lifted and Messi, with a smile as wide as Qatar itself, is making his way over to Argentina’s euphoric fanbase.

Chadi Riad was forced off for Morocco against the Netherlands but is in line to start.

There are no injury concerns.

Predicted Morocco XI: Bono; Hakimi, Diop, Riad, Mazraoui; El Aynaoui, Bouaddi; Diaz, Ounahi, El Khannouss; Saibari.
