STAT courtesy BBC: Morocco are into the quarter-finals for the first time ever. Only the fourth African team to reach that stage after Cameroon in 1990, Senegal in 2002 and Ghana in 2010.

A warm embrace between coach Walid Regragui and Yassine Bounou after the end of the game.

What a day for Morocco - their greatest in their history. Next up for them is either Portugal or Switzerland in the quarter-final.

All 3 of Spain's penalties were poor and Sarabia, Soler and Busquets did not exude the calmness nor the composure that they were going to put it away. Yassine Bounou saved two and the first one hit the post. Spain look shell-shocked as they digest this loss.

Heartbreak for Spain and they are gutted but look at the crowd which is more Moroccan than Spain. They are relieved and joyful. Yassine Bounou is the hero and he is being thrown in the air by his jubilant team-mates. Incredible scenes inside the Education City Stadium.

What scenes and it's a Spanish-born player that has sent Spain out of the World Cup. What a cool penalty that is by Madrid-born Hakimi. A panenka right down the middle. Talk about pressure! What pressure.

Morocco win! PENALTY SCORED BY Achraf Hakimi! Morocco 3 Spain 0. Morocco are through to the quarter-finals for the first time in their World Cup history. What a nerveless ice-cold penalty from Hakimi who sends Simon the other way and dinks the panenka right down the middle. And then he does a little jig as his thrilled team-mates run towards him to celebrate.

PENALTY MISSED BY Sergio Busquets! Morocco 2 Spain 0. Busquets of all people with a poor penalty. He goes to Yassine Bounou's right and the Moroccan dives to push it away. Neither had the power nor the placement. Morocco can win it with the next kick.

PENALTY MISSED BY Badr Benoun! Morocco 2 Spain 0. Hope for Spain as Simon dives to his right to save a low and weak penalty.

PENALTY MISSED BY Carlos Soler! Morocco 2 Spain 0. So so nervous from Soler. He goes to the keeper's left who dives and saves a weak penalty.

PENALTY SCORED BY Hakim Ziyech! Morocco 2 Spain 0. Straight down the middle and with power. Superb penalty by Ziyech.

PENALTY MISSED BY Pablo Sarabia! Morocco 1 Spain 0. Advantage Morocco as Sarabia hits the right-hand post. Bounou dived the right way too.

PENALTY SCORED BY Abdelhamid Sabiri! Morocco 1 Spain 0. Sabiri sends Simon the wrong way and side-foots it to his right.

Morocco to go first.

Yassine Bounou and Unai Simon - the turn of one to be a hero.

FULL-TIME! Morocco 0 Spain 0. After 120 minutes of action both teams could not be separated and we need to go to penalties now. Pablo Sarabia almost won it for Spain with the last kick in extra-time.

WE ARE GOING TO PENALTIES!

Sarabia HITS THE POST! Would have been touch and go for offside as Sarabia ghosts in at the back stick but his volley across the goalie hits the far-post and goes wide. Just a glancing blow and so so close to the winner. Spain feel devastated.

3 minutes of added time.

Change for Morocco: Azz-Eddine Ounahi off. Badr Benoun on.

Nico Williams is off and Pablo Sarabia is coming on. Williams is not too pleased with that decision. He was a sub who came on in the 75th minute.

Two Moroccan players get in each other's way and lose the ball. Spain break but Morata's final ball is poor.

Walid Cheddira again is away but a heavy touch and Rodri and Laporte get back to close him down.

Second half of extra-time begins.

First half of extra-time ends. Morocco 0 Spain 0.

BIG SAVE FROM Unai Simon. Walid Cheddira is away and Simon saves with his right leg as he pushes the on target shot away.

Double change for Spain: Alba and Olmo off. Fati and Balde are on.

Walid Cheddira is away and Aymeric Laporte tracks back and nicks it off his toe before he could shoot but the flag is up for offside. Cheddira had gone a bit too early.

First half of extra-time starts.

We are going to extra-time.

FULL-TIME! Morocco 0 Spain 0. Morocco gamely hung on as they did not create much in the 2nd half. Spain threatened but were unable to get the goal they wanted. Now we go to extra-time.

A free-kick on the left and Dani Olmo takes it, it's a good one as well, but Yassine Bounou saves by pushing it wide. That should be the last chance and the following corner is cleared. The referee blows for full-time.

A free-kick for Spain on the left, it goes to the back stick and Morata's header across goal is well over. Was a chance.

5 minutes of added time.

Alvaro Morata is away on the right and Nico Williams' shot is blocked by Sofyan Amrabat but the flag is up for offside. But replays show that Morata was on.

One more change as Nayef Aguerd is limping and has to go off. Jawad El Yamiq is on.

Amallah, forward En-Nesyri and impressive left-back Mazraoui off. Abdelhamid Sabiri, Walid Cheddira and Yahia Attiyat Allah are on.

Triple substitution from Morocco: Will confirm who are those.

Spain are threatening down the right and with no-one to cross to Morata flashes a shot across goal and would've been a tap-in if anyone from Spain got there.

That was the first yellow card of the game.

YELLOW CARD TO Aymeric Laporte for bringing down Hakimi.

Nico Williams off and Ferran Torres on for Spain.

It's all Spain at the moment but Morocco are holding firm. Lots of passes from Spain but Morocco have 10 men behind the ball.

Morocco make a change: Abdessamad Ezzalzouli is on. Sofiane Boufal is replaced.

Spain bring on Alvaro Morata and Carlos Soler for Gavi and Marco Asensio.

Down the other end, Morocco attack but nothing comes out of it.

Game opening up a bit now. Hakimi fouls Gavi on the left and the free-kick is blasted at the keeper by Dani Olmo. Bounou fists clear.
