Morocco literally cannot play any more perfect than that. It's like every ball they touched went exactly where they wanted it to. Portugal needs...
He's literally the highest rated player at the tournament thus far, according to a number of websites.
I've got Netherlands, but it wouldn't surprise me if they lose because of the reason you mentioned. Croatia is being a pain right now, but they...
It's a tournament and Morocco is trying to win matches, which makes complaints about style of play especially nonsensical. As you hinted at, fans...
They're playing great, but Portugal could very well have 7+ SOG by itself on Saturday. Or it could struggle as it often does against teams that...
Switzerland didn't come out ultra conservative against Portugal, but they also weren't very aggressive. It wasn't until 2-0 that everything opened...
I hate to break it to you, but Morocco likely would've put up its usual xG numbers against South Korea, Ghana and Switzerland too because its...
Calm down, you're acting like Morocco doesn't have a negative expected goal difference at this tournament. It drew Croatia while posting 0.5 xG...
They've been more effective playing their style at this tournament than Switzerland, but I wouldn't call them better. In 4 matches, their xGD is...
Yeah, I wouldn't say Mexico has overachieved at all. It's easily the second most populous country in Latin America, trailing only Brazil. They...
What counts as "properly decent"? Brazil seems to be everyone's tournament favorite and they've played Serbia (FIFA #21), Switzerland (#15),...
Exactly, France-England is basically a toss-up whereas Portugal is expected to reach the SF. Once the semis are set, Portugal likely won't be...
Apparently he's 24, but based on his running with the ball that may mean 54 in Moroccan.
Take the shot you slow ********ing ********!!! Cheddira is the only person in the stadium unaware of how slow he is.
Good lord, Morocco with the kick-it-literally-anywhere-else near-goal that's shot directly at the helpless keeper.
So annoying when a striker is 1v1 from 50 yards out, but doesn't have any clue how slow they are with the ball at their feet and never even get a...
Not to defend Portugal's performance against South Korea too much, but the guy who has accounted for 4 of Portugal's 5 goals didn't play and there...
Get a grip, he was Serie A Most Valuable Player last season.
Dias, Fernandes and Felix were all on yellows and were right to be left out. I'm surprised Santos played Neves on a yellow.
Third time in almost exactly one year that Portugal has played a group finale it didn't need to win, played like it didn't need to win, lost and...
Nice end to the half for Portugal. No excuse to leave this match with only one goal the way Portugal is finding space in the final third.
Ronaldo is poaching (poorly) and JM's best moment (the deep takeaway) was followed by an immediate, terrible pass right back to SK.
Glad Ronaldo is out there to tire himself out and assist Korean goals.
Boom! 2006 v. Mexico vibes.
Yeah, the biggest benefit of Ronaldo playing is to his ego. He and the team would be better off with him playing the R16 on 7 days rest instead of 3.
