Alphonso Davies scored Canada’s first-ever World Cup goal seconds into the match, but the team’s trip to soccer’s biggest tournament will end on Thursda🔴y against Morocco, the Group F leaders after a surprise 2-0 victory over Belgium earlier in the day.

Marko Livaja and Lovro Majer also scored for Cr💫oatia, the runner-up to France at the 2018 World Cup in Russia. Captain Luka Modric, 37, was still looking for his first goal of the tournament in🍸 what is likely his final World Cup.

Morocco went to the top of Group F with its first win at a World Cup since 1998. But the vꦕictory meant that the Canadians needed a win against Croatia for a chance to reach the knockout stage.
