  • 27' It is a cagey affair so far. Canada in their 4-4-2 trying to find a way past Morocco's compact 4-2-3-1.
  • 32' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Canada side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 37' Morocco seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
