World Cup 2022 LIVE: Spain vs Morocco latest score, goals and updates from last 16 – Spain frustrated as Morocco holding firm

75 mins: Spain are trying to walk the ball into the back of the net now. They’ve tried crossing the ball into the middle but Morocco’s central defence is too good.

They need to start taking risks and shooting from range. Nico Williams is on to replace Ferran Torres.

72 mins: There have been just five shot attempts in this match after 70 minutes. The fewest shots in a match at this World Cup is nine during Argentina’s 2-0 win against Mexico.

This game looks set to beat that.

69 mins: Spain are probing for that one clear cut chance in front of goal. Dani Olmo spins towards goal after taking the ball in the middle of the pitch.

He slides it into the penalty area for Alvaro Morata who shifts it to the left being losing possession after a perfectly timed sliding tackle from Nayef Aguerd.

66 mins: Sofiane Boufal is now replaced by Abde Ezzalzouli in Morocco’s first substitution. Boufal was great in the first half but hasn’t found the same freedom to operate in since the restart.

Jordi Alba – now back on the pitch – receives the ball on the left wing and wins a corner.

63 mins: Spain’s free kick is whipped into the box and well defended by the African nation who then breakaway down the right side. Hakim Ziyech drives the ball forward before flicking it down the wing and winning a throw in.

Marco Asensio and Gavi are taken off with Alvaro Morata and Carlos Soler brought on for Spain. Jordi Alba has picked up a knock too but for now will play on.

60 mins: The noise inside the stadium has been loud all game. The Moroccan fans are giving it their all and cheer every little victory for their side. There’s whistles and drums making it an intense atmosphere.

Gavi is bungled over by Nayef Aguerd and both sets of players kick off with each other again. Morocco think Spain are buying fouls, Spain think Morocco are too forceful.

57 mins: Morocco have pushed Spain deeper into their own half by pressing and shifting their shape further up the pitch. There’s a growing frustration in the Spanish team as Hakim Ziyech takes out Pedri and the referee refuses to pull out a yellow card.

The Europeans think the Moroccans are getting away with some heavy tackles.

54 mins: Spain win a free kick over on the left wing right next to the penalty area.

Shot! Marco Aseniso leaps over the deadball and backheels the ball into a good area for Dani Olmo to run into a first time shot. He blazes one at goal but Bono keeps it out by punching the ball away.

51 mins: Marcos Llorente gets forward for Spain and receives the ball on the edge of the box after a pass from Pedri. He flicks it out to Torres on the right side but the Spanish forward is forced to the byline and the ball bounces off him and out for a goal kick.

Spain have been more advanced since the restart.

48 mins: Nice work from Spain who dance their way down the right wing and give the ball to Ferran Torres. He knocks the ball past Noussair Mazraoui before cutting inside and winning his team a free kick.

The set piece comes into the middle of the box but Youssef En-Nesyri nods it away and out for a Spain throw in.
