Canada plays it’s last game at the World Cup this morning against Morocco.
Canada, already eliminated, is hoping to leave Qatar with its first win. Morocco would advance with a victory or a draw. There is a chance they could reach the round of 16 with a loss, depending on the result of Belgium’s match with Croatia.
Canada is 0-5 in World Cup play, failing to score in its only other appearance in 1986. After outplaying Belgium for most of their opener this year, but losing 1-0, they took an early lead against Croatia but lost 4-1.
Kickoff is at 10am on TSN.
