Goalkeepers excel in goalless first half
The first period was notable for fine saves from goalkeepers Bart Verbruggen and Yassine Bounou.
The Dutch had the better of the opening 20 minutes but Morocco exploded into life shortly before the first hydration break with captain Achraf Hakimi, who was winning his 100th cap, prominent.
The Paris Saint-Germain full-back whipped in a right-sided corner that Neil El Aynaoui met on the full but his header was superbly tipped over by Brighton goalkeeper Verbruggen.
