Elodie Nakkach is fine.

Germany's Felicitas Rauch has a volley blocked and the referee stops play so Morocco's Elodie Nakkachw, who collided with her own team-mate, can get treatment.

The players have some drinks.

Morocco deal with the corner reasonably well although concede a throw-in on the other side.

Germany win a corner as Sarah Kassi blocks a cross.

If you can be well structured and organised against a team ranked higher than you and you have a threat up top, you're always going to have a chance.

Germany clear a cross and Morocco captain Ghizlane Chebbak has a crack from 30 yards - straight at the keeper. It's a chance though.

A super high Germany backline catches Anissa Lahmari offside just inches into the German half.

Good defending by Morocco to stop a German attack.

Morocco's heads haven't gone down since conceding which is crucial. This is new territory for the world's 72nd best team.

With her pace, Ayane didn't need to go that early, if she had held back a little bit longer, she would have been in on goal.

Morocco get into the box for the first time although Rosella Ayane is offside and her touch takes her wide anyway.

Morocco swing a free-kick in from the left but it's cleared fairly easily.

Alexandra Popp is a match winner, she's a goal scorer and she's the player Germany look for if things aren't going well.

Morocco need to be careful that things don't escalate here. Jule Brand volleys over for the Germans from the edge of the box.

'Quality finish from Popp'

Germany's high press works so well. Kathrin Hendrich with a great delivery, the Morocco goal keeper Khadija Er-Rmichi is in no man's land and Alexandra Popp is going to finish from there with her quality.

Just as I was saying Morocco would be happy with their start, it's 1-0 to Germany.

That is Alexandra Popp's 63rd goal for Germany. Not a bad haul.

GOAL - Germany 1-0 Morocco

Morocco make a mess of playing it out from the back and Kathrin Hendrich whips a cross in. It's over keeper Khadija Er-Rmichi's head and glove and Alexandra Popp heads into the emptiest of nets.

Morocco putting a spell of possession together. They don't look overawed, although their final ball is lacking.

'Ayane will be looking to exploit Germany's high line'

Morocco are potentially looking to exploit Germany's high line.

Rosella Ayane has so much pace and she will be looking to take advantage of that.

A poor ball down the left by Fatima Tagnaout denies former England Under-19 international Rosella Ayane a first World Cup touch.
