Waylander Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Good free kick from Ziyech the attacker just moved too quickly. Morocco disciplined in defence notice E. Hazard often has two defenders on him. De Bruyne not really getting on the ball, both him and Hazard having to run into defence to help get the ball up the pitch. Suspect a 1-0 for Belgium. Great singing by the Moroccan fans for the national anthem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Stan Posted November 27, 2022 Author Administrator Share Posted November 27, 2022 Belgium. Shite is too generous for them. People moan about Messi ambling about sometimes or looking uninterested. Take a look at De Bruyne today. Utterly dreadful performance from him. Most Belgians looked bored, but for someone who is deemed to be one of the best playmakers around, he couldn't even be arsed to try and do anything today. Lazy and very uninspiring from him and several others. Morocco deserve a hell of a lot of praise. Managed the game perfectly, saw how they could nullify Belgium and hit them at the right moments. Belgium could actually learn a lot form Morocco in how to have spirit and desire to win a game. Martinez has a lot to answer for as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're likely getting three key players back earlier than expected. Works out well this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reluctant Striker Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 I've never watched an international tournament & wanted anything than to see any Villa players do well. Most recently, I loved Emi Martinez heroics in the Copa America. Happy for Matty Cash he had a way out of being 23rd choice right back for England.

Don't get me wrong I've been willing the Leicester lads to do well too. But if they come back early, so be it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belgium have produced some very good teams in the 80s and of course the recent team. However they are a relatively small country and is hard for them to consistently produce these good teams. You would fancy Morocco to beat Canada so Belgium have to beat Croatia. Obviously Croatia is a smaller country. They do very well for their size. I remember reading about if they did the world rankings per capita Croatia were near the top. Faroe islands were actually number one. Which does make sense when you consider the standard a lot of the other countries around about their size are. Iceland was second. Self explanatory that one.

OrangeKhrush Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 I am still wondering what Hazard is still doing there, he has played 51 games in 4 seasons, surely he wasn't picked on merit, he looks slow and finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
