Morocco vs Netherlands LIVE: Score and latest updates in World Cup last 32 clash as Van de Ven goes close

We’re back underway in this round of 32 tie.

It’s not been a classic in Monterrey but it’s become more interesting as the game went on, and both sides have threatened at times.

Morocco will be the happier of the two sides but it’s been attritional so far, and you get the sense this one will be decided by one moment of quality or a slip-up from either side. It’s going to be close!

We’ll be back underway shortly.

That’s more or less the last action of the half as the referee blows the whistle for half-time in Monterrey.

It didn’t start off as a great game but it’s become an intriguing contest in the last 25 minutes or so, and Morocco will feel the more confident as they head to the dressing rooms.

There’ll be a late free-kick in a dangerous area on the wing for Morocco as van de Ven commits a foul.

Hakimi delivers the set-piece and he fizzes a great delivery to the back post – it escapes all of the Dutch defenders and Saibari narrowly misses it at the back post! It would have been a tap in!

And another chance for Morocco allmost right away as the loose ball bounces to Ounahi, who sees the space open up in front of him before rifling an effort narrowly over the bar!

Almost a promising opening for Saibari but his touch lets him down as he misses out on latching onto the through ball in the area. He’d have been clean through!

There’a a delay in taking the corner after plenty of tussling in the Morroco box.

It comes in eventually but Brobbey is penalised for obstructing Bounou.

Into the first of six minutes of added time in Monterrey.

The Netherlands clip a couple of good balls forward towards Dumfries and Sumerville but Morocco do well top recover and clear before van de Ven sees his effort deflected over from distance.

Quite a nasty blow there for van Hecke, who was hit in the head by a defender’s knee as he went to ground when tussling in the box for that corner. The sort of challenge that could require concussion protocols.

He seems to be okay to carry on though.
