SPO:Saibari on target again as Morocco overcome Scotland

Ismael Saibari Morocco Scotland World Cup the World Cup

Ismael Saibari scored only 72 seconds into the game as Morocco beat Scotland 1-0 at the World Cup to keep alive their chances of advancing to their second straight knockout round.

Saibari slipped behind two Scotland defenders and Brahim Diaz dropped the ball over the top to him. Saibari gathered and blasted it into the top left corner of the net, well outside the reach of goalkeeper Angus Gunn.

Morocco, who reached the semifinals at the last World Cup in Qatar, drew 1-1 with Brazil in their Group C opener. Scotland, who haven't gotten out of the group stage in their previous eight previous World Cup appearances, beat Haiti 1-0 in their first match.

Saibari also scored Morocco's goal against Brazil.
