What a joke. Morocco overwhelmed itself. Clearly they didn't even come to win this match. In fact, they didn't even compete. Come on, let's be serious.

Morocco’s 8,764 miles (14,104 km) of travel was certainly a disadvantage. Long flights across North America can lead to:

* More fatigue and jet lag.
* Less time for recovery and training.
* Greater physical and mental stress.

By comparison, France traveled only about 2,016 miles (3,245 km) by the quarterfinals because they stayed on the U.S. East Coast unfair

Focus on handling heat better than vikings & overcome RB & injury worry via 3 CB & wingback shape to break low block with lots of wide crosses after short fast zipping passes

as Messi & Martinez did to get an amazing 3 goals in 11 mins comeback vs Eygpt &

also via that quick Lisandro long pass to Leo vs CV.

When Leo became a winger vs Eygpt & ran & dribbled it made 3 goals in 11 mins.

England did it v well on the left vs Mex. Via long switches to the wingers & wingbacks.

Dribble into the box & get pens.

Just shoot as it will cause rebound goals. Dont shoot off target. Get shots on target.

3 CBs will surround Haaland & keep him quiet.

Konsa has a good record vs Haaland.

Rice may have to join the fray as a sub, cuz real feel temp is predicted to be 40-44C.

Dec was ill & has to be careful.

Using young fit energetic guys &
All 7 subs is the way to do it in 40 - 44C temps.

France = 1982 Brazil.
Defence wins world cup gold medals.

Attackers win golden boots.

Argentina have thier Rossi in Messi & when Romero & Medina get fully fit in the Semi, they will have thier best defence back.

Harry is Englands Rossi but we got a problem with JQs ban & Guehi injury & Spence switch

Can anyone stop Kylian Mbappé, or is he destined to win the World Cup?
