GWT: World Cup - Group F (Morocco and Croatia Advance)

[Evilo]

Morocco leads the WC in players not born there. 14.

Croatia same story as Denmark.....their attacking players aren't as good as the defence/midfield.

Though Croatian midfield doesn't look like they're all at the same wavelength yet.

 

[Savi]

Great save Bono. Finally a good chance after a very quiet first half.

 

[Tom ServoMST3K]

A couple nervy passes from both teams in that half.

 

[Evilo]

Morocco deserved better but Croatia had the best chance right before the half.

 

[Kristopher Letang]

Morocco gotta play Sabiri instead of Amallah.

 

[Savi]

Morocco are very underwhelming IMO

 

[Evilo]

I'd say Croatia looks bad
Draw is the fair result and IMO Morocco has been a tad more dangerous.

 

[Panteras]

16 for Morocco is brutal

 

[HajdukSplit]

Too cautious for Croatia and Modric was playing too deep. Probably means we need a result against Belgium now

 

[Evilo]

16 for Morocco is brutal

Has he done anything positive? Can't remember any good play by him.

He lost the ball every time, including a run attempt which he left the ball behind him by error lol

Yeah that was weird. He was worse than any winger at 3rd french level.
He's the former Barca guy that Spain wanted to call up. Wow.

Does this graphic mean that all of Saudi Arabia's players were born there? Because that's definitely not the impression I had...

(also welcome back to the fray evilo )

Very boring with very few chances. Vlasic with best chance. Looked like both teams content with a draw.

Only 20 countries are named so I don't know.
Thanks!

I think he’s making a point about france being accused of this. Not suggesting they aren’t Moroccan

France filled roughly 3 WC teams.

Yeah France is accused of it when in fact filling multiple teams.
Meanwhile US, Spanish or Italian fans are the biggest accusers.
Yet look at how many players born abroad they're selecting...

 

[Power Man]

France filled roughly 3 WC teams.

And a whole continent has filled 2 WC and 1 Euro winning teams

Hmmm how so? By having an African grand father?

lmao.

Hopefully we get a @robertmac43 update on the atmosphere. I’m actually really interested in how this game goes. Canada should be able to strike hard on the counter attack. Belgium’s roster is actually a bit underwhelming.

I think this might be the best game of the day. 3-2 either way is my prediction.
