Morocco settled for a 1-0 victory over Scotland thanks to the fastest goal in the current edition of the FIFA World Cup, boosting its hopes of qualifying for the knockout rounds of Group C early on Saturday.
Morocco took the lead after 71 seconds through Ismail Sibari, who took advantage of a pass from Brahim Diaz. Saibari had scored the goal that put the Atlas Lions ahead in a 1-1 draw with Brazil in their opening match.
