Ben 4
BENIN WIN!
GOAL! Mama takes Benin home! They are in the quarter-finals for the first time in their history. Another great spot kick into the side-netting giving Bounou no chance.
Mor 3
MISS! El-Nesyri's kick is brilliantly stopped by Allagbe. It seemed like he dived too far but stretched his arm high and push it against the bar.
Benin 3
GOAL! Another substitute Tijani hits the ball straight down the middle. Their kicks have been very accomplished.
Mor 2
MISS! Boufal skies the ball way over the crossbar. Almost a yard too high.
Benin 2
GOAL! Djigla. Love the name. Love the penalty. Calmy keeps eye contact with the keeper then sends him the wrong way.
Mor 1
GOAL! Substitute Idrissi blasts the ball high into the net.
Benin 1
GOAL! Verdon. He was a rock at the back and it's a fine penalty. Just past the keeper's outstretched arms.
Penalties
Sessegnon wins the toss twice and so chooses ends and to go first.
120'
Morocco
Full time! A last ball goes into the Benin area where da Costa heads the ball into the arms of Allagbe.
119'
Two minutes to be added on before we have spot kicks.
118'
Is that the last chance? Boussoufa gets into the area on the left hand side and pulls back for Ziyech who skies over the bar. You expect better with his technique.
116'
Another effort from long range, this time from da Costa well wide of the target.
115'
Morocco
Mazraoui tries an effort from 30 yards out but it is easily gathered by the Benin keeper.
112'
Morocco
Substitute Mazraoui puts in a dangerous cross from the left flank but it is straight into the arms of the sprawling Allagbe.
110'
Benin
The game going exactly how Benin would want now. Morocco resorting to long balls forward.
107'
Back underway with little action but Benin take off their striker Pote - interesting seeing a shootout must be their aim here - for Yeovil's Sessi D'Almeida.
105'
That's half time in extra time. No sign of a breakthrough despite Benin being reduced to ten men.
104'
Benin even more happy to slow the game down and play for free kicks at every opportunity now.
100'
Now Pote goes down clutching his head after El Ahmadi's high boot went close to him. Looking for a bit of payback and the Moroccan gets a yellow card.
99'
Benin
Finally he goes off. Very slowly. Adenon has previous, having served a year's offence in the past for indiscipline involving referees. And now he is getting into it with the Morocco bench.
