WC 2018 Group B: Spain Portugal Iran Morocco

Final Score

Morocco 2 Slovakia 1

The Moroccan fans celebrate with a pitch invasion

 

So... 2-1 against Slovakia means Morocco can win vs Spain or Portugal !

 

El Kaabi should start for Morocco.

 

Yes bro of course.

Nike doesnt even let us use their stuff.

Our foxsports advert is going to be a small skit about the hostage crisis , rugs, and how Azmoun wants nukes.

How dare our players step out on the field in St. Petersburg and want to take this hate out on Morocco?

Poor us

 

What does Spain tying Switzerland or Portugal tying Tunisia mean ?

I look at how teams play, not the final scores. Spain was poor yesterday. Morocco today was very good.

But they are only friendlies. None of this means anything. I think Morocco has a very good chance to advance, much better than most people think.

 

I think Harit made a stronger case. That guy is nuts.

 

What does Morocco have to do with your problems?

I still believe Iran-Morocco is a fifty-fifty match.

 

Maybe start looking at the final scores too cause we also played Belgium

So I ask you: What does Portugal tying Belgium mean, especially when portigal was without their best player while Belgium seemingly had a full best 11

 

I pitty you mate.

 

This Moroccan side reminds me so much of the old Portuguese sides.

1. Fast, attacking Play with minimal touches.
2. Needs 20 chanches for every goal.
3. At least one ball hitting the post or crossbar.
4. At times indiscipline in tackles and unnecessary fouls.
5. Good long range goals/shooting.
6. Create lots of chances to go behind when the opposition gets one opportunity.
7. After the oppositions scores realize that you do not get points for shots and start scoring.
8. Red shirt, green shorts. Do not be suprised if the Portuguese ask to change shorts after the game. We have been waiting for years for #$%% Nike to make a kit with a red shirt and green shorts.
9. At least 3 players have to have moustaches (optional post 1990)
10. A neutral favourite.

 

El Kaabi for Boutaib and Harit for Belhanda that would be nice
two years ago El Kaabi was playing in Moroccan 4th league and had to work as a carpenter to make a living, now he's going to play the World Cup.

 

You're not at the same level with Spain or Portugal to make this comparison .
I agree that Morocco plays good football and has technically gifted players but we need to watch them play against top European teams to make proper judgement on Morocco's quality

 

Do not self harm, seek professional assistance.

 

I remember our encounter in 2004 Athene Olympics (Cristiano Ronaldo was there), we had the same Nike model and you were playing with red and green

 

haha

I thought about this too that you could look at the team and think it was Portugal.

With the uniform and the way they play.

Personally I hope both Portugal and Morocco make it through.

And I hope Iran frustrates the hell out of Spain and ends their WC chances by holding them to a draw.

 

I might have to watch the Portugal - Morocco game in Black and White so I do not support the wrong team

 

Nope......

Morocco clearly has the game wrapped up.

Team Melli should cancel the plane ride and not go.

WE ARE THE UNDERDOG

 

Slovakia is not a little team, they have good players and one of the most promising CB in the world who was on the pitch tonight. We're not talking Persepolis stuff.

Yet Morocco managed to make them look weak most of the time, the pressing was killing them. Sometimes they were struggling to get three correct passes, while Morocco was playing uptempo possession.

 

Correct me if I'm wrong but Nigeria advanced and played a pretty good game against France after while you've finished last of the group, right ?

 

Well, Portugal I could see. But win vs Spain?

 

I'd prefer Spain to have secured their qualification before playing Morocco

 

LoL , they did it against Ukranie last time too ,

 

To be fair to Nike (prefer Adidas by far) their kits have not been bad (mostly the second kits really dislike the all red), I especially liked the Black shirts but ask almost any Portuguese football supporter and they Will tell you "when are the red shirts and green shorts coming back."

 

also Da Costa the CB is a half Moroccan Half Portuguese .
