Group C's General Discussion Thread

I'm interested to see how a non-UEFA/Conmebol powerhouse/tier one team fares against a UEFA tier two team!

 

Honestly I think the only powerhouses that are not UEFA / CONMEBOL are Japan, Morocco, and maybe Senegal? I guess Australia and Ivory Coast are the next best non UEFA / CONMEBOL teams after that, but I haven't seen enough from them to be sure.

 

I trust Scotland to deliver a big performance!

 

Wow. I said the key to this game was whether Morocco scored early and they've scored the earliest goal of the world cup .

 

Massive setback for Scotland.

You won't see a better finish than that though.

 

Yikes!

That was a foul by Morocco!

 

very important to score early

 

They need to kill Scotland off and not get casual. They should be 2 up.

 

yeah I hope we won't regret those chances

 

Morocco is so wasteful.

 

Diaz reminds me of a younger Messi.

 

1 - 0 is not enough, Scotland was threatening in the last 10 min

 

Issa is reliable on air battle but his passes are a problem

 

Morocco hang on. They need to be far more clinical.

 

Morocco looked a bit mediocre but got the three points they needed for first place.

 

We'll take the 3 points but we should have done better

 

Tartan Army at Boston and Gillette Stadium was fun

 

It's the high press. All the teams ive seen employ this tire out in the 2nd half.

USA faced the same against Australia today.

Ecuador also tired in the 2nd vs CIV.

You gotta make the early high press count early on or you will pay in the 2nd.

I think Scotland figured this out but they went down early. Even a goal down ot looked like they were trying to conserve energy for a final push at the end of both halves.

 

Haiti is ballin !!!!
