SPAIN have their hands full with African giants Morocco in a World Cup last-16 encounter – but they’ll be eager to recover from what happened against Japan.
The 2010 champions suffered a defeat in their final group match courtesy of Ao Tanaka’s late winner despite the ball seemingly going out of play in the build up.
But Spain will still be confident in their ability to get the job done which was shown in their opening 7-0 thrashing on Costa Rica.
However, Morocco just became the first African nation to top their World Cup group since 1998 – finishing above Croatia and Belgium.
Furthermore, the Moroccans find themselves on a eight-match unbeaten run and they’ll be determined not to let that slip.
