This result isn't that bad.

We need to not lose to Croatia and beat Morocco to advance. 

Croatia hammering Belgium on the last day is not out of question.

Edit:

And we would need to beat Morocco by at least 2 right now. 

If my stressed math is right.

Sorry I am partly wrong. The tie breakers are as follows:

1. Greatest number of points from three group matches (each team gets three points for a win and one for a draw).

2. Goal difference in all group matches.

3. Goals scored in all group matches.

And if two or more teams still are tied after that? We go to:

1. Greatest number of points obtained in the group matches between the teams concerned.

2. Goal difference from the group matches between the teams concerned.

3. Goals scored in the group matches between the teams concerned.

-------------

We only have 2 ways to advance.

Option 1 - win both games

Option 2 - tie Croatia and beat Morocco by 2.

Edit: there is also a 3rd scenario where we beat Croatia and tie Morocco. We could still advance if Croatia beats Belgium and we are better at the other tie breaker factors.

My brain hurts now.

You're also missing the scenario where we beat CRO and tie MAR, and CRO/BEL draw.

Just see the post I quoted above :)
