Croatia vs Canada Live Score: It's been all Croatia so far
Croatia 2-1 Canada
45 Minutes- Half-Time
Post the historic first goal of Canada in the World Cup Finals by Alphonso Davies, it has been all Croatia in the first half as they have had two goals, 55% possession, five shots on goal and four on target. On the other hand, Canada, after scoring that goal have gone downhill and have had only 45% possession and just a single shot on target.
The two scorers for Croatia have been Kramaric and Livaja in the 36th and 44th minute

Croatia 2-1 Canada

As the commentators said earlier that Croatia have in the past come back after being a goal down and they have done it again as Marko Livaja, the number one striker of the Croatian team scored from just outside the 18-yard box and took his team ahead.

It seemed like Croatia have finally equalised as they took the ball, struggled in the Canadian 18 yard box and shot as well, but the off side flag was raised and the replays showed that Perisic was indeed offside

Croatia 0-1 Canada
14 Minutes
As was predicted, Croatia are now coming into their elements as they have had a corner and the ball in the Canadia n half for the last 3-4 minutes. They conceded against Denmark once in the first 100 seconds in a World Cup game as well, but they came back and won that game. So they know how to dig themselves out of a hole

It has been a shocking start to the game as Canada have started lightning fast off the blocks and Croatia are finding it hard to try and guess what they could make of it. Once the team settles, maybe then the likes of Perisisc, Modric and Kramaric can come into their elements

Fifa World Cup 2022, Croatia vs Canada Live Score: Game begins at Khalifa International Stadium
In the next game of the night, both the teams would be looking to get a win and keep their Round 16 hopes alive. Canada can take inspiration from their neighbour United States who held much fancied England to a draw. On the other hand, Croatia would want its legendary men Luka Modric and Ivan Perisic to come good and take one game at a time

Fifa World Cup 2022, Belgium vs Morocco Live Score: Match Summary
The Morocooan football team continued the trend of shocks at the Fifa World Cup Qatar 2022 as they beat firm favourites and one of the best teams in the world, Belgium 2-0 at the Al Thumama Stadium.
Though Morocco were disallowed a late first-half goal, in the second half they broke the gates in the 75th minute with a goal from Abdelhamid Sabiri’s free kick from almost the right corner. It got doubled after the substitute Azakaria Aboukhlal converted an assist from Hakim Ziyech in injury time.
This win takes Morocco to the top of Group F as they have four points from two games. They now have more than a decent enough chance to head to the Round of 16 as they await Canada, a relatively less difficult opponent than Croatia and Belgium against whom the Moroccans have remained unbeaten in this World Cup.
