I’m gonna cheer for Croatia for the most part, like Preston said, they’re basically wops.

Morocco is kinda outplaying Spain to be honest.

 

[lecoqsportif]

Not surprising, Spain’s “sterile domination” can be paralysis and vulnerable to quick strikes. That said, the constant possession demands a huge amount of concentration from the Moroccans.

Nil-Nil to PKs would not be a shock.

 

[zeke]

Canada the only team to get a goal against Morocco so far this tourney....

 

[lecoqsportif]

Yep. Adekugbe made a great move to force the OG.

 

[zeke]

Oh my morocco. Close.

 

[zeke]

Moors gonna conquer Spain?

 

[Deckie007]

Don't you mean The Moops?

 

[zeke]

Oh boy.

Arab spring.

These commentators on penalties are absurd -- if it goes in because keeper guesses wrong they say "fabulous penalty, cool as a cucumber"

Canada the only team to get a goal against Morocco so far this tourney....

One of your best banners yet!!

 

[CRL]

Hahahahahaha

 

[lecoqsportif]

Madrid-born Hachimi with the dagger.

 

[CH1]

Throwing out my Spanish olive oils

 

[zeke]

Hachimi with the Panenka to seal it. That is cold blooded. He's a good player.

 

[lecoqsportif]

Clementines du Maroc >>> Spanish copy cats

 

[Deckie007]

Adios Espania!

 

[Krustchev]

You could see which team had all the pressure on them there.

 

[CRL]

Looks like Morocco following recipe from Greece many years back
