The Atlas Lions of Morocco are through to the quarter-finals of the FIFA World Cup in Qatar, following a shock penalty shootout win over La Furia Roja of Spain in their Round-Of-16 clash played at the Education City Stadium in Al Rayyan on Tuesday.

There was nothing to separate both sides after 120 minutes of action, but when it came to spot-kicks, Morocco goalkeeper Yacine Bono saved multiple penalties while Spain failed to convert any of theirs as they suffer consecutive Round-Of-16 exits at the FIFA World Cup.
