Adelaide, Australia – Morocco pulled off a stunning 1-0 victory over South Korea on Sunday, claiming their first win in World Cup history.

The game’s only goal came in the sixth minute when Ibtisam Jaraidi headed Hane Ait El Haj’s cross onto the post and into the net. Morocco held on for the win, despite South Korea’s late pressure.

The victory keeps Morocco alive in Group H, with three points from two games. South Korea, on the other hand, is at the bottom of the group without any point.

Morocco will face Colombia next Wednesday, while South Korea will take on Germany.

Jaraidi’s Goal the Difference

Jaraidi’s goal was the difference in the match, as both teams created chances but could not find the back of the net. The Moroccan forward was a constant threat throughout the game, and her goal was a deserved reward for her performance.

Morocco Hold On for Victory

South Korea pushed for an equaliser in the second half, but Morocco’s defence stood firm. The Moroccans could clear their lines, launch counter-attacks, and even score a second goal late in the game.

In the end, Morocco deserved their victory and will be confident of picking up more points in their remaining games.

Looking Ahead

Morocco will next face Colombia on Wednesday in a match crucial for both teams’ hopes of reaching the knockout stages. South Korea, on the other hand, will take on Germany, which is one of the favourites to win the tournament.

It will be interesting to see how Morocco and South Korea perform in their next games. If Morocco can continue their good form, it could be a dark horse to reach the knockout stages.
