The Croatians started the second half strongly, with Orsic's shot deflected into the side netting and Majer's cross deflected away from the onrushing Kramaric.

Kramaric had to leave the match with a muscle problem, while Dari and Jawad El Yamiq also limped off for Morocco as the game and the tournament took their toll, with the match becoming scrappier as a result.

With five defenders now sidelined for Morocco, Amrabat had to drop into the back four.
