    Nicely worked goal. Gray created the move and finished it. Good work from Watmore too with the assist. 1-0. Good start.

    Lovely goal for Gray, his work in the buildup was great as well given the bobbly pitch.

    Sloppy keeping., lucky not to get a card. Now it's gifted the equaliser from a deflection.

    Error by keeper gives Morroco a goal from a free kick. 1-1.

    Cargill is having a real shocker, looks well out of his depth.

    Looks like Cargill might get hooked. They are certainly targeting him.

    Looks like he will survive to halftime, can't imagine him lasting beyond 45. Looking a bizarre selection to be honest, it's not like he's played much first team at any level.

    Took the words out of my mouth. Lad is a player and a half.

    Seems like a very entertaining match so far.

    This commentator is still calling our keeper Wilson.

    Iorfa now makes a mistake and now Morrocco can score here.

    Is there 40 minutes or 45 minute halfs?

    2-3, another defensive howler, albeit assist from the grass.

    Another really poor error. Granted the pitch isn't great but still. 3-2 Morroco.

    I was expecting the defence to be not good, but they've been the worst I can remember seeing from an England team. Cargill looks like a competition winner, Iorfa is just all clumsy athlete and no real ability, exactly the sort of player that should be moved away from.

    A pity as going forward there is some real promise, albeit need to see more from Wilson or replace him with Apkom, or bring on Aarons and move Watmore to striker.

    Yeah, I could feign worry but this defence just doesn't have future England players in it. I don't think any of the four are even that highly rated and Boothroyd is doing the annoying thing and not using specialist fullbacks and thinking that centre halfs will be fine out there.

    Good that it's halftime. We can make adjustments and wifi. The game. Morocco seem to be impressed with themselves already.

    Why not bring on Swift in midfield. He should be starting.

    Yeah not impressive management to pick that defensive lineup, it's not like he lacks fullbacks either - Odubajo is a natural rightback coming off a strong club season. Jack Stephens also normally a rightback.

    Iorfa did literally the worst thing possible on that 3rd goal, stopped it for the striker while falling over.

    In fairness, Iorfa is seen predominantly as a full-back by Wolves. He's not out of position, he's just having an awful game.

    I don't think we actually have a natural left-back in the squad though, do we? Cargill can supposedly do it and I have a vague recollection of Swift having played a few games there for someone or other, but I can't see anyone who'd play there by choice.
