Day 19: Morocco vs Portugal | England vs France (QF 3&4)

Seems Marocco gonna spend more time on the laying ground than on playing.
 
It will be a long half for Morroco. Hopefully they hold out but I can't see it.
 
Are you taking the mick?

they’ve been the far better team both technically and discipline wise. They’ve been playing rapid, precise one touch football whilst Portugal have been playing the anti football hoofing with Bruno hitting the back stands more often than not. Then they resorted to diving and cheating once they went 1-0 down and realised Morocco were outplaying them.

Your view on the first 45 minutes is so objectively awful there either has to be an agenda or you simply aren’t wearing your glasses!

Completely taking the mick!! Just based on people giving out about Croatia last night. A bad attempt at sarcasm, my bad!!!! Morocco have been awesome. Have them in a draw in work so definitely shouting for them!
 
It would be incredible if Marocco eliminated both Portugal and Spain.

If we are out I hope it's the end of cycle for Fernando Santos, Ronaldo and Pepe. We need to move on
It would be beyond sensational.
Draw against Croatia
Beat Belgium
Beat Canada
Beat Spain
Lead against Portugal with a makeshift backline

That's a Who's who of Europes Elite. And to do so while only conceding 1 goal (own goal against Canada) and none against Europe including penalties is filthy.
 
Yep that's the Ronaldo we watched all season, terrible with the ball on his feet.
 
You go ahead. While they are all most skilled, they are all inconsistent over their careers and they fluctuate between bad and good which to me makes them average and that's also why they play for the club they do or why they don't play that much for their clubs when they are in big clubs.

Hakimi is the only good player in that lot and he happens to be very good, the rest aren't.

They were both excellent when they played for Ajax, especially Ziyech. Sometimes players don't fit the style a club wants to play which seems to be the case with Ziyech and Chelsea. That doesn't mean they're suddenly average players. At the very least, they're clearly good players. Hakimi is world class and you make a genuine argument he's the best rb in the world atm. I don't know the rest of the players that well, apart from Saiss, Boufal and En-Nesriy, but they've played very well so far, particularly Amrabat and Ounahi. I'll be keeping on eye on some of them coming out of this tournament.
 
Ramos is a cutie

They cant play this deep for 30+ mins.. surely.. they need to push forward a little.
 
Morocco are so good technically. They really do need to take their chances and punish Portugal on the counter or they'll be made to rue them.
 
Why would Portugal not bring on Leao.. come on man. He's the best player to have for compact defences. Bring on Ronaldo instead ffs. Santos things.
