Morocco took advantage of Germany’s disappointment by edging Colombia 1-0, a result which saw them finish runners-up in the group to their opponents.

The crucial moment came in first-half added time, when Ghizlane Chebbak’s penalty was saved but Anissa Lahmari netted the rebound.

While Colombia now go on to play Jamaica, Morocco face France.
