Group B Matchday 2 - 20 June - Portugal 1-0 Morocco, Iran 0-1 Spain

[bozziovai]

so this group will go to the 3rd and final game to decide who will go thru, coz i can see Spain winning against Iran and that would see a table with spain and portugal on 4 points and iran on 3.    a decider game between portugal and iran will be on the cards .....

Too bad he choose the wrong team

Born and raised in Spain, I would say he chose the right team.

Good luck to him ever getting a game then 

[SirBalon]

Only managed to watch the last 15 minutes of the game. Don’t know if that was the story of the 90+ minutes, but it was a containing last 15 from what I was able to witness.

No doubt, but surely he picked the country that he feels is home.

He applied to switch to Morocco after not getting first team action for Spain. Which shows playing is his first priority.

He picked the country that approached him first.

Ha - well then it all he cared about was playing, then he made an awful choice.

Like I said, wasn't aware, but did 10 minutes of research to see that his pops is Moroccan, but he was born and raised in Spain so I figured he went with the country he was born and raised in.

Neither was I on the whole M'Baye Niang debacle yesterday and you decided to try and ridicule me.

Hypocrisy at its finest.

Superb 

You do it to me and hate it when I bite back.

Maybe next time don't do it and we can live in peace.

Amrabat just said on Dutch TV that apparently during HT the referee asked Pepe whether he could get his jersey after the match.

No hate - but totally different topics, and I didn't state anything as fact. I said 'Surely', which goes to show that I admit to not knowing the whole story. 

You tried to state facts by comparing him to another player. Very different scenarios. 

But I digress, you give me migraines.

If you want we can call it truce because it really gets tiresome adding a thought, making a mistake and everyone jumping in to try and ridicule me.

Im no football brain - I'm just another guy. So if you want we can call truce.

saw the highlights.

 

it seems like Rui Patricio has masturbated a lot before this game coz he was top notch.

Morocco appealed to Munir before Spain did to represent the country of origin but he refrained from committing due to him being one of the talked about youngsters and hoping for a call up by Spain which finally arrived. But after his debut his form dipped and the rest is history.

He has applied on two occasions for his Spanish football federative license to be switched nationality which Spain had no problems with but FIFA have said no on both occasions due to others trying the same thing.

Fuck that bollocks national anthem they play for the Iran national team, here's the real deal:

 

[Eco]

Dear Baby Jesus, please just give us a good match and not that bull shit we have been watching all day. 

Amen.

I thought this was the Iranian national anthem? 

 

Aren't they Indian?

[Machado]

Spain to break a possession record in a world cup match. Around 80% I reckon.

Sergio might be my least favorite player in the world...
