Belgium’s failure to score against Croatia means they are out, while Morocco finished on top and Croatia in second. It’s scenes for the African nation, whose first-half goals from Hakim Ziyech and Youssef En-Nesyri paved the way for all three points.

For instance, a tumor can invade nearby structures and affect their function, or press on nerves (e.g., ovarian cancer may cause constipation by pressing on the colon; lung cancer may cause hoarseness by pressing on a nerve as it travels through the chest).
