On Sunday, Morocco jeopardized Belgium’s World Cup hopes as Abdelhamid Sabiri and Zakaria Aboukhlal’s late goals secured a surprise 2-0 triumph in Doha. Belgium, third in Russia four years ago, could have qualified for the last 16 with victory but instead produced another insipid display after their fortunate opening win over Canada. Morocco replaced Belgium at the top of Group F. Now, they will qualify for the knockout phase for the first time since 1986 if they can avoid defeat against Canada.
