Gallant Morocco lose World Cup bronze to Croatia

Action during the Morocco vs Croatia match



Qatar 2022 World Cup revelations, Morocco, ended the tournament empty-handed after losing narrowly to 201 finalists Saturday evening in the third-place match.

The action-packed encounter ended 2-1 in favour of the Europeans, who went ahead with a fierce Gvardiol header in 7'minutes but the African Arabs drew level with a Dari header two minute after.

Orsic, however, restored the Croatians’ lead three minutes to the interval.

All efforts by Morocco to equalise – including unheeded cries for penalty – proved abortive.

Argentina and defending champions France clash in the grand finale tomorrow, Sunday, December 1, 2022.
