After making history in the Round of 32, Canada is hoping to keep its World Cup alive in another do-or-die game against Morocco to open the Round of 16.
Les Rouges had never progressed beyond the group stage in a World Cup prior to this year, but by finishing second in the group stage, they advanced to the Round of 32 for the first time.
Their first knockout match ever against South Africa was a tense matchup that went into stoppage time at 0-0, but a clutch goal from Stephen Eustaquio punched Canada’s first ticket to the Round of 16.
