FT: Morocco 1-0 Ivory Coast. All over here, as Morocco make it two wins from two and secure a place in the knockout stages. Ivory Coast were not really at the races, with Wilfried Zaha again overlooked. They still have work to do to qualify. Thanks for joining us. Goodnight.

CROSSBAR! Mbark Boussoufa, who has just come on, clips a lovely cross into the path of the onrushing Mazraoui at the back post, he looks odds-on to score, but sees his close-range effort cannon out off the crossbar.

With his back to goal Traore takes a touch to tee himself up and then performs an overhead kick. It’s on target but the keeper saves without bother. Four minutes of added time...

Belhanda pulls back Bony, knows exactly what he is doing, and earns himself a yellow card.

Boufal twice tries to beat his man, but each time comes up short.

SAVE! Great jinking run from Belhanda, he then fires for goal, but Gbohouo throws up a hand to make a smart stop.

Change for Morocco with Noussair Mazraoui on for Amrabat. A fine display.

Pepe fires the cross into the middle, which us much better, but Morocco scramble it clear.

Again, poor delivery and Morocco clear. Had so many options to aim for and another waste.
76'
Amrabat concedes a free-kick on a dangerous position for Ivory Coast. Needs a good delivery.

Aurier finally gets to leave the pitch, with Mamadou Bagayoko on in his place. No Wilf then...

It was Traore with the challenge. El Ahmadi goes into the book for protesting!

NO PENALTY! Hakimi breaks into the box, looks set to pull the trigger, goes down under challenge but the referee is having none of it.

Time for a change for Ivory Coast, but it is not Zaha, with Wilfred Bony replacing Seri.

A flowing Moroccan move: Ziyech to Boussoufa to Hakimi to no one! The final ball goes astray after the Atlas Lions swept 30 yards forward and into the box.

Great ball in from Ziyach, but En-Nesyri cannot guide the header on target.
