Morocco Advances into Quarter Finals Beating Spain Soccer

Morocco has earned their place in the Quarter-finals after a stellar victory over Spain at the Penalty Shoot-outs.

Morocco is the fourth African side to reach the quarter-final of a World Cup tournament, after Cameroon in 1990, Senegal in 2002, and Ghana in 2010.

This is the first time Morocco has reached the quarter-finals of the World Cup. Morocco is undefeated in their last five games in the World Cup and will now play  Portugal in the quarter-finals. 

Spain dominated the game from the early minutes but could not take advantage of the goal-scoring and taking the lead. None of the team scored in the regular 90 minutes and could not score in the extra 30 minutes. 

In the second penalty shoot-out of the season, Morocco stunned the Spanish player and won the shoot-out 3-0. The penalty shoot-out unfolded the same way as between Japan and Croatia
