\n

Alexandra Popp scored twice in the first half and Germany added four more in the second in a 6-0 rout of a Morocco team on its debut at the Women\u2019s World Cup<\/a> on Monday.<\/p>\n

The margin of victory is the largest of the tournament so far as the two-time champions dominated throughout against Morocco, the first Arab and North African country to qualify for the tournament<\/p>\n

Popp scored her 63rd and 64th international goals, moving to third on Germany\u2019s all-time list. The Wolfsburg forward quickly made her mark on the tournament after missing out on the final of the 2022 European Championship<\/a> against England because of injury.<\/p>\n

The second half featured two Morocco own-goals sandwiched between goals from Klara B\u00fchl and Lea Sch\u00fcller.<\/p>\n

KEY MOMENTS<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the 11th minute, Popp scored with a header off a cross from Kathrin Hendrich. She doubled her tally with another header in the 39th off Klara B\u00fchl’s corner kick.<\/p>\n

B\u00fchl scored the third goal with a right-foot strike just 23 seconds into the second half. For the fourth goal in the 54th, Svenja Huth served a ball in off a rebound from a corner. The ball then bounced off Morocco defender Hanane A\u00eft El Haj for an own goal.<\/p>\n

Another own goal by Yasmin Mrabet followed before Lea Sch\u00fcller rounded out the scoring for Germany in the 90th minute.<\/p>\n

WHY IT MATTERS<\/strong><\/p>\n

After losing to Zambia and Brazil in recent friendlies, Germany announced itself as a contender to win the tournament with the comfortable victory. The 2003 and 2007 World Cup<\/a> winners have advanced to at least the quarterfinals in each of its eight previous World Cup appearances. Germany is on top of Group H, with Colombia and South Korea set to play their opening match on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The lopsided loss adds pressure to the remaining group-stage matches for the Moroccans, who need to improve on this performance in order to keep alive any hopes of advancing to the tournament’s knockout stage.<\/p>\n

IN THEIR OWN WORDS<\/strong><\/p>\n

“I haven\u2019t set myself a goal on how many goals I\u2019ll score. I want to reach the finals and to win the finals. Apart from that, I\u2019m just happy. I hadn\u2019t scored really well before (in the World Cup), but these two goals were a boost.” \u2013 Alexandra Popp, Germany captain.<\/p>\n

“We have to go again, there\u2019s another two games. We have the spirit, we have the fight and we\u2019ll regroup and go again against South Korea.” \u2013 Rosella Ayane, Morocco player.<\/p>\n

WHAT\u2019S NEXT<\/strong><\/p>\n

Germany will travel to Sydney for its next game against Colombia, who advanced to the round of 16 in its last World Cup appearance. Morocco will play South Korea at Adelaide\u2019s Hindmarsh Stadium. Both games are scheduled for Sunday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
