In the 82nd minute, Joao Felish threatened the Moroccans' goal. He beat Cristiano Ronaldo, who came on as a substitute at the beginning of the second half, and shot from the edge of the penalty area. But the Africans were saved by goalkeeper Yassin Bounu, who made a magnificent save and pulled the ball out from under the crossbar.
