    Epic, I hope you guys spank Spain. Still wish we (Netherlands) had Ziyech and Mazraoui, those two are legit!

    Unlike many other players out there Ziyech always first and foremost wanted to play for Morocco, so it wasn't a second choice thing. I believe Mazraoui is the same.

    I know Hakimi was the same. For whatever reason they feel more Moroccan than where they were raised.

    They did it but they really stressed me in the 2nd half, that own goal they conceded changed their attitude and they decided to leave the possession to Canada.
    1st time CAF sends 2 teams to the 1/8
    hope Ghana joins the party !

    Actually not true. Ziyech wanted to play for the Netherlands and was already selected for the Netherlands, even accepted the invite and came out to the trainings. However he got injured before the game and after that got into a fight with the coach and then went to Morocco. We've all seen how fiery Ziyech is when he feels wronged. But his initial intention was to play for the Netherlands.

    Mazraoui is different, he played for the Moroccan youth teams and always wanted to play for Morocco.
