Cristiano Ronaldo the difference as Portugal edge out Morocco in a 1-0 win

Morocco were the better team, hands-down, but their failure to find the net has condemned them to an early exit from the tournament.

Full-time report

Football can be so cruel at times. It looked like the Moroccans prepared for everything. Almost. Because you can't prepare against destiny, and you can't prepare for Cristiano Ronaldo either, apparently. Morocco are out of the FIFA World Cup 2018 after losing their second match today against Portugal in Group B of the FIFA World Cup 2018 at the Luzhniki Stadium. They'd be especially sore about it because they lost the two matches despite playing arguably better than their opponents. But then again, luck wasn't on their side and neither was Ronaldo, who made all the difference.
