Morocco and Spain produced a nail-biter in the Round of 16 match. The first 90 minutes and then extra time of 30 minutes ended at 0-0 but then Morocco scored three goals in the penalty shoot out.

With the surprising victory, Morocco became the only African and Arab nation to reach the quarterfinals in Qatar.

Spanish team members and fans were devastated at the end of the shootout at the Education City Stadium in the Qatari capital when their team failed to convert even one shot from the spot -- Morocco goalkeeper Yassine Bounou saved efforts by Carlos Soler and Sergio Busquets while Pablo Sarabia struck the post.
