Canada is seeking to continue its historic World Cup when taking on a fearsome Morocco team in the round of 16 on Saturday.
It’s been a tournament of firsts for the co-host. A first-ever World Cup point preceded a maiden victory, results which aided qualification to the knockout stage for the first time. The Canucks snuck past South Africa in the round of 32 to make further history, but will be pushed to their limits by the toughest opponent faced to date in Houston.
