For 45 minutes, Canada dared to dream.

A dominant first half over one of the top 10 teams in the world. It just lacked a goal to make their dominance count. 

But the Canadians couldn't quite find that opening, a dogged Moroccan back line blunting their attack.

In the end the scoreline very much flattered Morocco, who relied on a moment of set-piece magic and classic counter-attacks for their goals. They were far from their best — Canada denied them that — but took their chances. That was the difference today.

Canada's magical, history-making World Cup campaign comes to an end in Houston. 

They're the first co-hosts to bow out of the tournament, getting clean-sheeted by Morocco.

Morocco finds time to add one more to the tally.

Soufiane Rahimi gets in on the action, sliding the ball past Crépeau after being found on a 3-on-1 break.

It's salt in the wound for Canada.

Crépeau is doing what he can to get Canada on the board, even if it means attacking Morocco's box.

The Canadian goalkeeper twice went up for set-piece opportunities and bravely challenged for the ball, even though he didn't get anywhere near them.

That's the Canadian effort!

It looks like Canada's 2026 World Cup campaign will come to an end in eight or so minutes, barring a massive miracle.

Ounahi makes way for the Moroccans after a superb performance that saw him bag both goals tonight. 

He makes way for Samir El Mourabet, as Issa Diop is also taken off in exchange for Marwane Saâdane.

Canada is also making a double change, bringing Jayden Nelson and Jonathan Osorio on for Tajon Buchanan and Niko Sigur.

Canada almost found themselves in a deeper hole, as the ball from a Moroccan header struck the crossbar and basically fell straight down. 

Thankfully for Canada, it bounced on the good side of the goalline — though it may have been called back for offside if it had gone in anyway. 

For a moment it was four on two. Canada got bodies back, but the defence was too stretched and Ouhani had space to pick his spot.

Canada needs a miracle now.

Canada is hit with a potentially fatal blow on the counter.

Ounahi bags his second goal of the game, hitting a curling but powerful shot out of Crépeau's reach to cue Moroccan celebrations.

Canada was caught too high in the North Africans' half, and they paid a hefty price.

David had to make the goalie work with that free kick. It's a wasted opportunity.

Overall, it's been a much more even second half. Ominously, Morocco are finding some rhythm and piecing more passes together. Canada has to try to break that up again as much as possible but, maybe understandably, their energy has dipped. 

Definitely time for those subs.

On a positive note, Canada is finding openings in the Moroccan defence. Now they have to make those openings count.
