The defeat at Hindmarsh Stadium came as Ibtissam Jraidi’s sixth minute header earned the north Africans their first win at a FIFA Women’s World Cup and, coupled with their 2-0 loss against Colombia earlier in Group H, means the Koreans were all but dashed.
“Congratulations to Morocco for their first win in World Cup history,” said the Englishman. “I'm not going to say it was a deserved win. I think they got off to a good start, and that affected us in the first half.
One for the history books as #MAR record their first #FIFAWWC win! 👏
