DOHA: Pablo Sarabia, substitute for substitute Nico Williams, would see his 120th minute shot kiss the post of Yassine Bounou's goal and fly out. The last action of regulation and extra-time play would tell the story of the day. Because Sarabia would find the post again, this time in the penalty shoot-out as it would trigger Spain's slide out of and away from Qatar.
That Spain would attempt 1000 passes at this World Cup once again but in the end, not one of them got them the result they needed. Morocco, hanging on by the skin of their teeth, would defend and defend, a veritable red wall of stone to take the issue to penalties where they would prevail 3-0.
