Morocco dispatched a determined Canada 3-0 in the World Cup last 16 on Saturday as Azzedine Ounahi scored ​twice and the North Africans ended the co-hosts' record run while advancing to the quarter-finals for the second time in a row, Reuters reported. 

The scoreline flattered Morocco, who were on the back foot for most of the opening period and failed to register an attempt on goal until the 28th minute after Canada had spurned a number of solid chances.
