Mbappé spot-on again! - All The Goals From Matchday 24 - FIFA World Cup 2026

Played back by Hakimi. Well worked! And there's the opening goal! Joyous scenes for the Morocco fans in Houston. Such a well-worked set-piece. They've come alive now. And Azadine Unahi with a terrific finish to put Morocco one up. That just shows you the value of set-pieces if you're struggling in a game. Morocco didn't have the best first half, but they've taken the chance. And that was terrifically well played on that right-hand side. Knew exactly what he was doing. Waiting on the edge, he basically passed it into the back of the net. Krepo was probably unsighted for the amount of bodies in there. Great free kick from Morocco. Canada talked about the ruin, the opportunities and the pressure that they had in the first half by not getting a goal. As your answer got a little bit of a touch as well as it was going in. He'll be relieved rather than anything. This is de Fusaro. Can't find Johnston. And now Talby. There's a break off for Morocco. They got four in the attack. It's a good pass played there by Talby. This could steal things here maybe. It's Rahimi! 2-0 to Morocco! Surely they're heading through now. They look to be on course for a quarter-final. Well, they reached a semi-final four years ago. And this team of great talents is on the march again. Azedine Unahi scores again to make it 2-0. What a blistering break that was from Morocco. They've been absolutely devastated in front of goal in this second half. And Canada giving the ball away, being too obvious down that right-hand side, leaving so much space. They always leave that risk, Canada. And they have to, having been 1-0 down. Now it's 2. But look at the movement. Great play by Diaz. Steadies himself. Sets up, and again, an absolutely brilliant finish from Unahi. And that's it for Canada, I'm afraid. Morocco have come to the party in this second half. And that's the difference between the two teams, that quality in front of goal that Canada haven't had. And that was the danger on the breakaway that Morocco would pick off Canada. Fusarol going in. Here's Brahim Diaz. He's there to be a third goal now for Morocco. Yes, there is! And Rahimi! Morocco's North American tour will continue. Quarterfinals, here they come. But this is the end of the Canadian dream this summer. It certainly hasn't been a 3-0 game. But when it counts, when you're in front of goal, Morocco have just had that quality that Canada haven't had. And Rahimi's got his goal. He finally came to the party in the second half. Look how... Look at the celebrations in the crowd. This place just comes alive when Morocco score. It's such hard luck for Canada. They've given everything. They've done brilliantly. They've come so far in this World Cup, come so far under Jesse Marsh. But this is where it ends. Canada pushing forward, leaving lots of space. I mean, three great finishes. Well, they came off the bench in the first half. Sofiane Rahimi, when Saif Bari went off injured. At that point, you maybe feared for Morocco going forward. But they found the answers as the game has gone on. And they've sealed their progress. And there goes the full-time whistle. Morocco are the first team to reach the quarterfinal stage. They will face either France or Paraguay in the next phase in Boston. Jesse Marsh's team bow out. But bow out with heads held high. And historic campaign for them ends here in Texas. But Morocco's class toll in that second half. Hunahi at the double. And then Rahimi in stoppage time. Here's Desiree Doué once again. Keeps going is Desiree Doué. That's a great run. He goes down. The appeals are there from the French fans. Nothing is given. And now they have to hold off the attack from Miguel Almarón who is chasing and chasing and chasing. But a firm arm from Saliba. You see him take the ball up to the corner. And now, well, that's taken it out of Miguel Almarón. That sprint out of his own half. And Villara having a look. Oh, for Desiree Doué as he goes through. You can see the initial touch. And as Diego Gomez comes through, he certainly gets a big piece of Doué right there. He leaves the leg out. Referee allows the play to continue. He waves off the penalty shout. Doué goes to ground for me. That's a penalty. And he is going over to the screen. Well, the appeals were so loud from France, the players, the bench, and the fans. And have the appeals been heard down in Dallas? So the decision is penalty. France's first penalty of this tournament. Well, you wonder if Ousmane Dembele is deflecting who's really going to take this penalty. He's in the midst and the havoc right now of Paraguay trying to do everything to upset the opportunity for France to take this penalty. But you wonder if Kylian Mbappe is slowly going to mosey over. And right there, it should be a yellow card for Gustavo Velasquez as he's trying to chunk up the penalty spot. Yeah, no surprise to see the ball exchange hands. And it will be Kylian Mbappe who has a golden opportunity to draw back level with Messi at the top of the standings for the golden boot of the tournament so far. The last penalties Mbappe took in a World Cup were in the final against Argentina. Two in the game, one in the shootout. And this to give France the lead in the last 16 against Paraguay. Well, Miguel Amoron was pointing to the spot. He's not happy with where the ball has been placed. And there is more now with these distraction techniques as there's a puff of the chest from Kylian Mbappe. Ten goals he has in the World Cup knockout rounds. It's Mbappe who steps up and rolls the ball. Was it ever doubt? France's 150th goal at a World Cup. From this spot, from Kylian Mbappe, his seventh goal of the tournament so far. And now France have the lead.
