World Cup scores, updates: Morocco vs. Spain, Portugal vs. Switzerland

Hakimi is over the free-kick. Just outside the box, he curls his attempt over the bar with Simon tracking it all the way.

Alba looks for Asensio in the middle of the Moroccan half but Amrabat rushes across to win possession. Moving forward, Boufal is then fouled in a shooting position.

Spain has never lost in three previous meetings with Morocco (W2 D1), with its two wins both coming in qualifying play-off legs for the 1962 World Cup in November 1961 (1-0 away, 3-2 home). The Spanish have had a lot of the ball, but have not troubled the Moroccan defense.

Chance for Morocco. Bursting down the right, Ziyech looks to beat Alba on the outside but kicks it out for a goal-kick.

As expected, Spain has dominated possession in the opening few minutes. However, most of its passes have been around the halfway mark, with Morocco holding a defensive shape in its own third.

As for Spain, Enrique makes five alterations to the side that lost to Japan. In the defense, Rodri is the only one to retain his place, with Llorente coming in for Azpilicueta at right-back, Laporte replacing Torres at center-back and Alba starting ahead of Balde at left-back. The midfield trio of Gavi, Busquets and Pedri remains the same, with the other two changes coming in the attack. Williams drops to the bench and is replaced by Torres on the right wing, with Asensio leading the attack instead of Morata.

Y

Morocco makes one change to the team that beat Canada last time out. It comes in the midfield, with Amallah replacing Sabiri. En-Nesyri leads the attack and will be looking to become the first ever Morocco player to score three goals at the World Cup, with the Sevilla striker level with Salaheddine Bassir, Abdeljalil Hadda and Abderrazad Khairi on two goals.

We are underway with Morocco vs. Spain!
