As Morocco beat Scotland 1-0 and move into second place in Group C, all eyes are now on their potential Round of 32 opponent.
Fans, along with football accounts across social media, are weighing the different scenarios depending on whether the Atlas Lions finish first, second, or third in the group.
If Morocco finishes top of Group C:
If the Atlas Lions finish top of Group C, they will face the Group F runners-up and stay in the United States, playing in Houston on June 29.
The runner-up in Group F is currently Japan, on four points, level with the Netherlands at the top of the group.
But things are still open, as Sweden, in third place, is still able to finish second if they beat Japan and the Netherlands beat Tunisia.
If Morocco finish runner-up in Group C:
If Morocco finish second in Group C, they will face the Group F winners, but they will have to travel to Mexico and play in Monterrey on June 29.
As Group F is still open, the Netherlands could be the winner if they beat Tunisia and Japan fail to beat Sweden.
It could also be Japan if they manage to beat Sweden and the Netherlands fail to beat Tunisia.
But Sweden could also top the group if they beat Japan and the Netherlands fail to beat Tunisia.
If Morocco finish third in Group C:
If the Atlas Lions finish third in Group C, they could face Mexico from Group A or the Group I winner, which is still undecided and could be Norway, France, Senegal, or Iraq.
They could also face the Group E winner, currently Germany, at Gillette Stadium on June 29.
