Netherlands v Morocco

Just over 10 minutes separate the two sides from the pressure of spot-kicks; a prospect which will now be firmly in the minds of both Koeman and Ouahbi. Having used four of their changes during regulation, Morocco will be allowed to make one final substitution before penalties, while the Netherlands still have two alterations in reserve.

Morocco get the match restarted from the kick-off, for the final time tonight!

HALF-TIME IN EXTRA-TIME: NETHERLANDS 1-1 MOROCCO

Morocco are looking to keep possession with a minute to go before added time, as the Atlas Lions look to see out the remainder of the period with the pressure on their opponents. Just as they were for much of the second half, the CAF side appear the more threatening with the ball at their feet, though they perhaps lack the field-stretching pace of the Netherlands.

Before tonight - Morocco had already scored as many goals in three games at the 2026 World Cup as they managed in seven games in 2022 (six). They’re averaging 16 shots per game in 2026, up from just nine shots per game in 2022 (11 against the Netherlands currently).

El Aynaoui’s pass through the lines finds the feet of Saibari, who tries to turn 30 yards from goal but he’s immediately sent to the ground by another crunching Van Hecke challenge, which gets the ball cleanly before the man according to the referee.
