The World Cup Round of 16 has kicked off, with co-host Canada facing Morocco in the first match. Morocco, a dark horse in the competition, is looking to make more history after becoming the first Arab and African nation to reach the semifinals of a World Cup in 2022.
Canada’s Historic Run
Canada has already made history by advancing to the knockout rounds for the first time. The team will enter the game against Morocco feeling it has nothing to lose. Morocco, on the other hand, would have expected to be here, given its performance in the group stages.
Cape Verde’s fairytale run has come to an end, but the team has won the hearts of soccer fans around the world. The team’s performance against Argentina will go down in history as one of the greatest upsets in World Cup history.
