世界杯淘汰赛：奥纳希梅开二度，摩洛哥三比零加拿大

Today we're talking about a World Cup knockout game: Morocco beat co-hosts Canada three to zero.

The score looks like a big win, but Morocco also won it patiently.

First, a word on Morocco.

Morocco come from Africa, and are a team that has improved hugely in recent years.

They play fast and smart, and combine very well.

At the last World Cup, they finished very high, making the whole world remember them.

Now a word on Canada.

Canada are one of this World Cup's hosts, playing at their own home ground.

Alright, let's look at the game.

In the first half, both teams played cautiously, and neither scored.

But in the second half, Morocco found a way.

In the fiftieth minute, Hakimi delivered a lovely pass, and Ounahi fired a powerful shot from outside the box into the net — zero to one.

Morocco led, and played with more and more confidence.

Not long after, Ounahi seized a gap in Canada's defense and scored again — zero to two.

Scoring both goals himself, Ounahi became the brightest star on the pitch.

In the final moments, substitute Rahimi scored another — zero to three.

Morocco had completely sealed the win.

Canada, meanwhile, never found a good chance and couldn't score at all.

In the end, Morocco won cleanly, three to zero.

So, how should we view this game?

For Morocco, this is a very impressive win.

They proved once again that African teams have every bit of the quality to go toe-to-toe with the world's best.

For Canada, losing is of course a shame.

But as hosts, reaching the knockout stage for the first time is already their own piece of history.

Though they lost today, their home fans are still proud of them.

That's Morocco three to zero Canada, a win belonging to Ounahi, and to African soccer.

See you next match.
