But it takes a nick and deflects, Bono pushes it wide for a corner. 4': SAVE!! The corner is taken short and then sent to the back post and is headed downwards by Upemacano on target but Bono swats it away! 19': Dembélé tries a leaping header but he puts it wide of the far post. 21': Rabiot's header loops high and wide. 25': PENALTY FOR FRANCE!!! Mbappé one v one in the open field, Mazraoui lunges in and takes him out!! 27': Takin' a long time to confirm the pen by VAR, Mbappé looks frustrated 28': SAAAAAAAAVE!! Mbappé stutter-steps, Bono doesn't bite, Mbappé fires and Bono saves!!! 33': Dembélé shoots from outside the box and fires wide 35': SAVE!!!! Doué picks the pocket of the Moroccan defense and fires one-on-one with the keeper but Bono gets one hand on it to just push it wide! 45+1': Digne fires from way way out and puts it into the crossbar!! Bono got a touch to it but didn't really redirect it, lucky to see it hit the woodwork. 45+5': Morocco gets a free kick off a Rabiot handball just outside the box, but Hakimi shoots and sends it wide. HT France 0-0 Morocco It's been mostly France so far but Bono is denying every chance and Mbappé may yet rue that missed penalty 46': We're back! 55': SAVE! Doué with the shot from an angle, but an easy catch for Bono. 56': Olise sends an awkward bouncing pass into the book, springs Mbappé but he can't get the shot on target. Puts it high and was offside anyway. 60': GOAL FRANCE!!! Oh my goodness out of nowhere!! Kylian Mbappé naturally with the shot from outside the box and perfectly into the net! 62': Morocco double sub: Sofyan Amrabat and Soufine Rahimi ON FOR Bilal El Khannouss and Ayyoub Bouaddi 63': Uh-oh, is Mbappé hurt? He went down, got up but is down now again after a foul by Issa Diop that gets a card 66': GOAL FRANCE!!! Ousmane Dembélé gets a pass from Mbappé, rushes forward and finishes from down the middle into the bottom corner! 71': France substitution: Warren Zaïre-Emery on for Manu Koné 73': Upamecano slices on the clearance and puts it on the roof of his own net! Could have been bad 74': Morocco double sub: Zakaria El Ouahdi and Gessime Yassine on for Anass Salah-Eddine and Brahim Díaz 77': France double sub: Bradley Barcola and Jean-Philippe Mateta on for Désiré Doué and Kylian Mbappé who leaves waving to the crowd 83': SAVE!!! Hakimi plays the free kick over to Ounahi who fires but Maignan punches it away and France clears! 85': El Ouahdi drifts in to meet the corner kick but heads it into the side netting! 85': Morocco substitution: Amine Sbaï on for Chemsdine Talbi 86': Pass comes through the box to Olise but Olise's attempted curler doesn't curl enough and goes wide. 87': France substitution: Malo Gusto on for Jules Koundé 88': SAVE!! Barcola goes down the left side, has options but takes it himself, Bono denies it at the near post! 90+4: SAVE! Mateta cuts inside and shoots but kind of mishits it and Bono is able to kick it away.
