Morocco boss Mohamed Ouahbi believes "nobody is unbeatable" at the World Cup, as his side reached the last 16 following a dramatic victory over the Netherlands.

Ouahbi's side defeated the three-time finalists 3-2 on penalties in Monterrey, where the tie had finished 1-1 after extra-time.

Issa Diop took the game beyond 90 minutes with his second-half stoppage-time header, and though Neil El Aynaoui and Achraf Hakimi both missed their spot-kicks, Yassine Bounou saved Crysencio Summerville's penalty before Ismael Saibari secured victory.

Morocco's goal by Diop, timed at 90 minutes and five seconds, was their second-latest goal in a World Cup match, after Zakaria Aboukhlal's effort against Belgium in 2022 (91 minutes, 51 seconds).

The Atlas Lions have now won both of their World Cup matches which have gone to extra-time, after also defeating Spain on penalties in the round of 16 four years ago.

Morocco went to reach the semi-finals and finish fourth in Qatar, but Ouahbi believes they can go even further this time around.

"What we need to tell ourselves is no-one can stop us," he said. "We're unstoppable if we play the football that we know how to play. But nobody is unbeatable. And I tell my guys that as well.

"If we get things wrong, we'll go home. We need to ensure that we have all the tools that we're using, the tools in our arsenal to go as far as we can. That's the mentality that we want all of our players in Morocco to have.

"Moroccan players in Morocco believe in themselves, the supporters believe in us as well. It's so important. They're demanding, but it's because they know just how far we can go."

Morocco will back themselves to now reach the quarter-finals with a last-16 clash against Canada, who are enjoying their best ever World Cup performance.

Ouahbi, however, insisted there would be no complacency ahead of their tie with the co-hosts.

"We know that it's game after game, and people think that it's going to be easy for us, it's going to be a walk in the park for Morocco, which is not the case," he added. "Canada is a team that is going to be difficult for us."
