ADELAIDE :Debutantes Morocco claimed their first ever victory at the Women's World Cup with a 1-0 win over South Korea in their second Group H encounter on Sunday, all but confirming the Asian side's exit.
Park Eun-sun nearly levelled with a diving header of her own at the other end but the forward saw her effort go agonisingly wide of the post, much to the relief of Khadija Er-Rmichi in Morocco's goal. She even took one for the team when she deliberately clipped Ji So-yun, who was racing through on goal on a counterattack with support, accepting a yellow card without protest.
"I can't believe it, to be honest. We saved the worst two performances in my tenure for the World Cup. I didn't recognise my own team," said Bell, who took over in 2019 and guided the team to the final of the Asian Cup last year.
