Canada dug itself an early hole Thursday and couldn’t find a way out despite a late surge, exiting the World Cup winless for the second time in 36 years after a disappointing 2-1 loss to Morocco.
Hakim Ziyech and Youssef En-Nesyri scored for No. 22 Morocco, which took advantage of horrendous Canada defending to lead 2-0 after 23 minutes. Canada got an Nayef Aguerd own goal to cut the lead to 2-1 at the break.
