FIFA 2022 world cup

[Ahli38]

Morocco plays well in defense, and Bono is a very good goalkeeper, they were lucky to some extent, playing defensively with counterattacks is also a strategy and it works well for Morocco. Well, on the other hand, it’s not worth talking about the luck of the team reached the semifinals. It doesn’t matter who was in attack Portuguese national team, Morocco defended almost the whole team, in this case, as we saw, it is very difficult for them to score a goal, for the entire World Cup Canada was able to do this only once.

Morocco played neatly and patiently. that's what becomes a trap for the opponent, and they wait for the moment to make an attack that can take the opponent by surprise.
they play well and consistently. they get the win and tickets to the semi-finals. they are so amazing. then just waiting for their efforts to be better. whether can get 1 place in the final or not. but Morocco's current achievements are truly extraordinary. history will record them.

correctly. and if we talk about luck then I think Morocco won not just because of luck. but Morocco's ability is good in the world cup this time. and well, Morocco is very consistent and can maintain the rhythm of the game well. and yeah this will go down in history for Morocco. because Morocco's best achievements used to only enter the round of 16. if I remember correctly, I read it, that is, I read in the news that the last time Morocco entered the round of 16 was around 36 years ago. and this year Morocco won a ticket to the semi-finals without defeat. obviously this is going to be good history for Morocco.

The game against Morocco was a game full of frustration, how could it not be? they played with a very solid bus parking system and waited for the game until the penalty round, they were only lucky to score 1 goal against Portugal.

I'm disappointed, not with the Portugal players, but their manager. I'm disappointed he didn't play Rui Patricio, he preferred to play Diogo Costa even after the mistake he made in the group stage game against Ghana.

That is Morocco's tactic. They played so also against Spain and were lucky to win 3-0 on penalties, which have happened against Portugal. In the first 3 games they also played 0-0 against Croatia, but only against Belgium ist was different, they won 2-0. It's strange if Morocco play in the final, I can't imagine it.  

Sometimes to win each team can do anything as long as it doesn't break the rules teams relying on penalty shootouts usually know what they are capable of
Like Morocco they have the best goalkeeper who played in La Liga and was once the best goalkeeper there another advantage is that he must already know the character of the Span players so I'm assuming it wasn't just luck there are great strategies and abilities there. Yesterday in the last match Morocco lost in statistics but the total shot is not much different 9 vs 12  and 3 vs 3 on target.

[cygan]

morocco's style of play and tactics remind me a lot of those used by greece in 2004, when they surprisingly won the european championship as outsiders.
the advantage of the moroccans is that almost the whole stadium is supporting the africans and they are pushed even more.

Well, another bet that unfortunately I lost.
I bet that Portugal would easily win against Morocco, but unfortunately that didn't happen.
France and England had an interesting and competitive game, but the French team got the upper hand and managed to advance to the semi-finals.
My question is, will Morocco play inspired and motivated against France and manage to advance to the finals? Will Croatia beat Argentina?
will this actually happen? this is my question!

Nothing is sure this world cup, so many unexpected result happened and that include the loss of Portugal to Morocco, I also lose a bet because of this.
Morocco is on the hot spot here, if they manage to sustain that momentum then I can see them going into the finals for the very first time.
France is the defending champion though, they won't let that to happen easily especially now that they are very near for going back into the finals.

I confess, this world cup was something surreal!

Japan beat Germany and also Spain. Saudi Arabia beat Argentina, Tunisia beat France, Croatia managed to tie the game in the final minutes, won on penalties and eliminated Brazil.
Argentina opened a considerable advantage in the game against the Netherlands, but even so they managed to reverse that score and went to penalties.
Morocco beat Spain on penalties and also eliminated Portugal.

One thing I noticed is that, day after day, many countries around the world are training hard to become a competitive team in the world cups. An example I could cite was Japan, managed to have an excellent performance compared to previous cups

The time has changed when only Brazil and some European countries "dominated" the world cup.

The World Cup in Qatar was last chance for Ronaldo. The Portuguese star could not do his best in the Qatar World Cup. Portugal had to leave in the last eight on Morocco's last night. They lost 1-0 in the quarter finals. This famous Portuguese star is now 37 years old. probably he may not get the chance to play in the next World Cup. Because he will be 41 years old in 2026 World Cup. In this World Cup, it has been seen that Ronaldo has fallen a lot under the weight of age. Considering that, Qatar can be considered the last World Cup of Ronaldo's career. At the end, against Switzerland in the sixteenth match and against Morocco in the last eight match, Portuguese coach Fernando Santos did not keep him in the starting eleven. The world may never see this legendary player again in the World Cup.

If I would support a country to win the world cup, I have no support for Morocco before or any other country, but Morocco has been the first African country to get to semi final, that is unbelievable and no draw while they are playing, they are surprisingly winning the marches before 90 minutes play, but I doubt if Morocco would be able to win France.

Saudi Arabia beat Argentina

That is true but not worth saying as world cup progress to semi final and Argentina still qualifies, facing Croatia.

[CryptopreneurBrainboss]

Morocco has the support of both the African fans and Arabic fans. They're been supported by almost everyone in the stadium and they're making good use of that privilege. Morocco hasn't played the best football at the tournament but they have always found a way to win games. The biggest challenge will be on the 14th against the current champions. That match is going to be a most watched as France will be looking for a ticket to go defend their title while Morocco would be hoping on continuing their fairytale at the world cup.

What's going to be interesting about this match is the fact most France players in the squad has African origin so this is going to feel like an Africans semifinals. The physicality and skills will both be present on that day but we'll be routing for Morocco all the way from African

As the world's best legend, Portugal's Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the stars of the football world.  Because this World Cup of his life may be the last World Cup because he will not be able to participate in the World Cup due to age.  Although it was Ronaldo's last chance, he could not survive the clash with Morocco.  I think their coach Santos did the opposite if Ronaldo had been involved in the game from the start Portugal would have been more likely.  Ronaldo had a chance to score a goal shortly after entering the field but he couldn't do it because of the goalkeeper.  And in 2026, Ronaldo will no longer be this young, his pace will slow down, and he will not appear in any future World Cup for Portugal.

The Morocco team was taken lightly by the Portugal coach. And he paid the price for this mistake in Portugal's defeat. Against Switzerland, without Ronaldo, Portugal's attack played very well and scored 6 goals. The Portugal coach thought the same strategy would work against Morocco. So he did not give place to Ronaldo in the starting XI. And so Portugal's gameplay was quite slow in the first half. And on this occasion, the Moroccan players made some good attacks and managed to score a goal as well. In the second half, with Ronaldo, the Portuguese players were attacking, but they were not able to score. Portugal lost badly because of bad decisions by the coach.

I don't say the Portugal coach, Mr. Santos was wrong by choosing Goncalo Ramos in last two matches of Portugal because of two biggest reasons.

• Cristiano Ronaldo lost his good performance in past few months, not only in World Cup 2022
• Goncalo Ramos is a promising young player and this World Cup can be a start for his journey with Portugal in later big tournaments.

Even I support this choice of Santos, I did know a young player like Ramos can not play well in all big matches. He need to have more experience to improve his skills and ability to face with pressure. In match with Morocco, Ramos had one chance to make a good finish with his head but failed to complete it well. If Ronaldo is a player in that position, with his jump power, he would be able to complete it better. The match with Morocco shows that Ramos must learn a lot of more things for his career.

And on this occasion, the Moroccan players made some good attacks and managed to score a goal as well.

To be frankly, in that goal, it is not a too much dangerous attack but Diogo Costa made a mistake and awarded Morocco that goal. A biggest mistake belongs to Costa, no doubt about it.

I doubt that in this match there was an underestimation of the opponent, it was 1/4, at this stage it is difficult to underestimate anyone. Perhaps after the win over Switzerland, the Portuguese had a little overestimated opinion of themselves, and who can blame the coach, after such a victory, apparently he did everything right. In the second half, Marocoo had a great chance to score the second goal, but Costa saved Portugal. Ronaldo was already on the field at that time, and we will never know what could have happened if he had played from the first minutes. )

If you have been following Morocco from day one you will understand that those guys are playing good football and they are playing even one of the best footballer in this world cup.
Their attackers are used to destroying defenders one-on-one I remember one match, probably the match before the Portugal that the attacker single-handedly destroyed the defender of Spain.
I can also tell you that Morocco is the best team in terms building up the game from there own 18th and end up in the other people's 18.
They always play defensive and when they get possession of the ball they don't shoot out, the to play pass even from their 18 box to the opponent.
They have strong players and strong team and good coach and strong fan base and success is also in their side.

This World Cup was the last chance for many great players like Neymar, Ronaldo or Messi. Only Messi is still in the game for the world title.
Frankly, Ronaldo has not been playing at a high level for a long time and his influence on the Portuguese team was destructive.
Portugal played its best game in the round of 16 when Ronaldo did not play from the start.
After that match, Ronaldo was the first to leave the stadium and did not celebrate the great victory with his teammates, and allegedly before the match he threatened to leave the world football championship if he did not play from the start.
Because of all these tensions with Ronaldo, there were problems in the team and there was more talk about Ronaldo than about the next match with Morocco.
I'm sorry to say it, but I think that Ronaldo is the biggest culprit for the defeat of Portugal in the quarter-finals, because of his selfishness and the destruction of the unity of the team before the most important game of a great generation.

I see your point also. Right from his club Manchester United, he has not been of good character and inspiring to the team players threatening to leave and that also happened in his national team. If the coach decide to play him by the second half means the coach was not satisfied with his performance and that should make him change but he became a bad egg, leaving just immediately after the match was a sign. I hope Ronaldo won't end up badly with the press.

There is a good reason for Portugal to lose this match as Portugal's coach brought Ronaldo on the field in the 55th minute of the game so Ronaldo did not improve the game much in those last 35 minutes.  If Ronaldo had been brought on from the start of the game, Portugal might not have been in this situation and they might have beaten Morocco. Portugal lost this match due to a wrong decision by the coach of the team

[ZAINmalik75]

After seeing many surprising results, I wouldn't be surprised if Croatia and Morocco meet in the final. In fact, if we see such a thing, we will experience a world cup that we will talk about for many years. Nobody could have predicted that these two teams would win so many matches, since our predictions surprise us, I started to think that Morocco could be the champion.
Let's see what Portugal can do tonight

Bro you can't underestimate Argentina because the way they beat Mexico and other team , one man army Lionel Messi has a ability to beat strongest defend lineup and score a goal lonely so I a pretty sure that he will kickout these old man's team coratia, it's true that Morocco is a real challenge for any team because they beat one of the strongest team of world cup name Portugal, which is more than a disaster for any team now, we hope that Ronaldo fear well will be little bit good at semifinals but unfortunately Ronaldo leave the staudim with a tears  also Neymar leave the stadium with tears

You believed all journalistic tales. This is sad, because since they work, journalists will continue to invent them. Morocco was better yesterday, that's all, no need to invent some culprits and destroyers, because otherwise you will have to explain how Ronaldo was able to destroy the Belgian team, and then Spain  Perhaps all because of the fact that too much was said about him? By the way, you can still blame him for the failure of the Brazilian national team and at the same time the German national team

I wouldn't be surprised by a narrative like this, because indeed he always attracts the attention of many people even when it's a natural thing to do as a player. The Portuguese players who played on the field totaled 11 people, but why was there only 1 name to blame and even then he didn't play from the first minute. I think in a team like this it's not worth blaming one player, it's not fair to the players concerned. Defeat for a team is the responsibility of everyone who is in that team.

Morocco is truly a dark horse. Their performances were resplendent and they haven't lost yet. Morocco looks to have a good mentality and they always appear confident against whoever the opponent is, because they have nothing to lose so they can play without any burden and this actually makes their performance look good. If they could just keep playing like that, I think they will have a chance to win against France.

I just add to what you said, Morocco really plays nothing to lose.

even if Marocco lost the game the other day, Marocco is not under great mental pressure. after all, they were prepared to lose to the opponents they would face. however, that does not mean they will not provide resistance in every match. As Cygan said, this reminds us of the 2004 tournament. In fact, Greece's performance at that time was very bad. it's just that, they were lucky then. Marocco is aware that their opponents are not easy opponents. and if they play with open schemes, they are finished. this is football, sometimes the game doesn't go the way we expect. Marocco tends to play with bus parking tactics, like Jose Mourinho's tactics. uniquely, Marocco's defense was quite strong and very disciplined.

however, Marocco will face a tougher team in the semi-final match. the scenario, Marocco will play with the same pattern against France. I'm pretty sure, to stop Mbappe and Dembele is a tough job for the Marocco squad. In my estimation, Marocco will not be able to withstand the onslaught of Didier Descamps' troops.
