Ziyech and Kovacic through to World Cup Round of 16, Lukaku nightmare leads to Belgium exit

Morocco and Croatia earned their places in the World Cup Round of 16 after the final games in Group F.

Hakim Ziyech scored in Morocco's 2-1 win over Canada that allowed them to top the quartet.

In the other game, Croatia and Belgium played out a goalless draw. Mateo Kovacic played almost the whole game and was subbed off in the injury time.

The main headliner, though, was Romelu Lukaku - and for all the wrong reasons, too. The Belgian forward who is still on Chelsea's books missed three sitters in the second half.

Had he scored even once, Belgium would've leapfrogged Croatia into second place. However, they are going home after the group stage.
