U-17 Women's World Cup: Morocco's hopes hang in the balance after another defeat

Morocco lost 5-1 to Argentina on Friday in its final Group A match at the U-17 Women's World Cup in Rabat. The Atlas Lionesses were trailing 4-0 at halftime; PSG forward Nessma Mouradi pulled one back in the 58th minute, but Argentina added a fifth goal in the 73rd. Morocco dropped to third behind Germany and Argentina and must wait for the results in Groups C, D, E and F to learn whether it will qualify for the round of 16 as one of the four best third-placed teams.
