Both coaches named competitive sides, with Luka Modric and Ivan Perisic starting for Croatia, while Sofiane Amrabat, Hakim Ziyech, Youssef En-Nesyri and Sofiane Boufal gave Morocco a familiar looking line-up.
It was completely different from the cagey 0-0 draw when the two teams kicked off the tournament almost a month ago, with Morocco keeper. Yassine Bouno almost put a clearance into his own net under pressure, before two quickfire goals made it 1-1 before 10 minutes were on the clock.
