What time is Canada vs Morocco today? Kickoff time, channel, live stream to watch World Cup match image

Group F finishes play Thursday at the 2022 World Cup, and there is nothing for Canada to play for today besides pride and history. 

Canada has been eliminated from advancing out of the group stage after suffering losses to Belgium and Croatia. After an inspiring contest against Belgium to begin the competition that saw them lose 1-0, Canada fell flat defensively against Croatia, falling 4-1.  

While it is too late for Canada to advance to the knockout stage, history can be made with a victory over Morocco. The Canadian men's team has never won a World Cup game.

In addition, Morocco needs a win to clinch a spot in the knockout stage. A loss or draw would take matters out of their hands and their fate would be determined by the result of the Croatia-Belgium match. 

Below are all the details to follow the Canada vs Morocco match, including the kickoff time for fans in North America.
