India vs Morocco FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup 2022 Highlights: IND lose 0-3, out of contention for quarter-finals

India looked far better than they did against the USA but this was not enough. The first two goals they conceded were probably avoidable, the third one was a case of a good finish against tired legs. India will now play their final match of the tournament against the mighty Brazil on Monday. 

Cherif beats a couple of Indian defenders with her run from the left and then puts the ball past the keeper for her team's third goal of the match. That is possibly going to be the final scoreline here. 

Anita breaks free thanks to a lovely ball down the line from Lynda on the left and runs at goal, the Moroccan goalkeeper is completely off her line and there are two Indian players running into the box on Anita's right. She decides to go at it herself, takes a weak shot at the near post that the goalkeeper saves and the ball goes out for a corner. Decision making in the final third once again to blame. India 0-2 Morocco.

Dennerby giving his players an absolute earful as they come to the sidelines for a drink. Much of it seems to be directed at Sudha. India have made a good show of themselves but there is no doubt that the two goals they have conceded today were totally avoidable. 

As it stands, India are going out of the World Cup while Morocco still stand a chance. India continue to be unable to string more than one pass in attack.

Good save from Melody. Said has acres of space on the right wing to run into and she finally has only the Indian goalkeeper to beat. She takes the shot and Melody gets her fingers on the ball to make the save. 

This had to happen. A cutback that should have been regulation take for the Indian goalkeeper Melody, she spills it again and this time, pays the price. The ball goes to Zouhir behind Melody and she just has to turn into the empty net.  

It's gone a bit silent at the Kalinga Stadium since that goal. Morocco have kept the Indian defence pressed and it does look like they will score more. 

El Madani goes right, goalkeeper goes the correct way as well but she is unable to stop it. Morocco have got their first ever goal in these World Cup finals, uphill battle for India now. 

A rather clumsy tackle from Shilki and Naketa ends up handling the ball. Clear penalty for the Moroccans. 

India kick off the second half. Wonder if Dennerby has asked the girls to continue the way they are playing or asked them to take a more defensive approach, which would be rather unnecessary at this point really. 

A fascinating first half. India survive a period of sustained pressure from Morocco towards the end of that first half. There was a point when a spill from Melody almost led to India conceding one. 

Shilky Devi becomes the first Indian player to get a yellow card tonight. She is the second overall though, with Zouhir having gone into the book earlier. More of the same so far, Morocco showing some more composure than India on the ball but not really able to do much with their position. 

A first shot on target from Morocco, albeit a rather simple one for Melody to collect. Djennah Cherif takes a shot from well outside the box, about 30 yards away and it floats safely into the hands of the Indian goalkeeper. 

The players take a cooling break. Dennerby is barking orders at his wards, they have played well so far compared to what they did against the USA but Dennerby would certainly want them to be better in attack. There were moments when players would clear the ball away blindly from defence, only to give the ball back to the opposition. India have been good so far and Dennerby wants them to raise their level further. 

Both teams unable to hold on to the ball too much. Neha makes her way to the byline on the left and manages to square it, Morocco clear it. This is certainly a much more well-fought contest than the match against the US and the Indians' pace while running at defenders is causing the Moroccans a lot of issues. 

Big chance there for Morocco to score their first goal of the tournament. Goalkeeper Melody Chanu comes off the line to not allow Said to get on the ball all alone inside the box. But the ball goes to another Moroccan player, India do well to cover her while Chanu got back into position, the ball went out of the box again and a shot is fired in by Zouhir, it hits the cross bar and goes off. That is a let off and a half for India. 

India certainly are causing some problems to the Moroccan defence but they seem just a bit too eager to get the ball ahead which is not really allowing them to string up moves. The hosts have look good though. 

India starting to look good now. They win a free kick about 40 yards away on the right hand. Neha whips the ball into the crowd inside the box, it was a dangerous delivery but no one coming at the end of it for some reason. The ball bounces right in the middle of the crowd and goes out. 

Morocco caught napping near their box as Anita Kumar snaffles the ball and dribbles into the box. She then tries to square it and the ball is kicked out for a corner, which comes to nothing. A scare there for Morocco.

Morocco have won a free kick after centre forward Hajar Said was held up. It was a fair distance away and so tried a routine which didn't quite come off. Nothing much to report apart from that, Morocco have had more possession but haven't been able to make a real threat. 

India are attacking from left to right wearing their home sky blue kit. Morocco are in their usual white and reds as well. 

Dennerby has stuck with the 4-2-3-1 he deployed against USA, just a couple of changes in the personnel. Morocco coach Anthony Rimasson has also used a 4-2-3-1. 

Starting XI: Wissal Titah (GK), El Assaoui, El Ghazouani, Nadia Bennasou, Hajar Said, Doha el Madani, Samya Masnaoui, Dania Boussatta, Djennah Cherif, Mina el Hamzaoui, Yasmine Zouhair

Right, the two teams have walked out at the Kalinga Stadium and the national anthems are being played out. Seconds away from kick off now.
