Dutch pay the penalty

Five spot-kicks were missed as Morocco knocked out the Netherlands on penalties in Monterrey. Cody Gakpo had put the Oranje ahead with 18 minutes to go, but Issa Diop's header forced extra-time and ultimately penalties, where the Dutch missed three and the Atlas Lions only two, with Ismael Saibari netting the winner to send the North Africans through to face Canada in the last 16.
