The match was refereed by Michael Oliver, from England. Marsh expressed pride in his team, stating: "What a privilege for our fans to support a team like that. That applies even to the end of our participation. It wasn't a defensive game. I would rather have been us, and not Morocco. As good as the Morocco team is, I would rather have been us," highlighted the coach in an interview with ESPN. With this victory, Morocco advances to the quarterfinals, where they will face the winner of the clash between Paraguay and France.
