Morocco vs Spain : World Cup last 16 Match Thread 3pm 6/12/22
Venue: Education City Stadium Sounds correctional...
Last chance of a shock in last 16? Will watch if I can get over unreasonable intolerance of MAR rather than MOR on the infographics Spain were eliminated on penalties by Italy in the semi-finals of last year's Euros. "I imagine that they have done their homework," said Enrique. "Over a year ago, in one of the Spain camps, I told them they had to get here with at least 1,000 penalties taken," "If you wait until getting here to practise penalties... [it won't be enough]. "It's a moment of maximum tension, a time to show your nerve and that you can shoot the penalty in the way you have decided, if you have trained it a thousand times. "It says a lot about each player. It's trainable, manageable, how you manage the tension. It's increasingly less luck - the goalkeepers have more influence. "We have a very good goalkeeper, any of the three can do very well in this situation. Every time we finish training, I see a lot of players taking penalties." Meanwhile, Morocco wing-back Achraf Hakimi says he thinks his side can "pull off another surprise" against Spain. TEAM NEWS Enrique says he has a full squad of 26 players available to choose from after Cesar Azpilicueta recovered from his knock against Japan. Morocco also have a clean bill of health and Hakimi is likely to be fit to play after nursing an ankle injury. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/63789751 |

Morocco have a good game plan, look very tidy & aggressive, some quality dotted around the side - if they take the lead it could be a long day for Spain. If Spain score first, Morocco could be exposed if they have to break shape & chase it. Interesting rather than shite so far. |
