Brazil v Morocco

Live coverage of the opening match in Group C between Brazil and Morocco from the New Jersey Stadium in New York.

This is one of the standout fixtures in the group stages with five-time champions Brazil facing a tricky test against the 2022 semi-finalists. Group C also contains Scotland.

It has been 24 years since Brazil last won a World Cup and they’ve gone out at the quarter-final stage at four of the last five tournaments. Can legendary coach Carlo Ancelotti end their drought?

Morocco were involved in controversy earlier this year when they were beaten by Senegal in the final of the Africa Cup of Nations. Senegal had walked off after Morocco were awarded a controversial penalty but came back to win 1-0, only for the result to be later overturned and Morocco declared the winners.
