How is it possible that we're hardly hearing how GOOD Morocco is??? They have been playing so freaking good all cup have been undefeated in 4 games, topped their group, beat the No. 2 ranked team in the world, and toppled former champs Spain. They are running an absolute rout this world cup and I expect them to reach the Semi Finals and perhaps at we'd be one unbelievable triumph away from seeing them in the Finals and then.... Well... That would be something.
"Running an absolute rout" is an exaggeration. They survived this game by the skin of their teeth. Great win, but they didn't rout Spain by any definition of the word "rout."
People acting like Hakimi, Amrabat, Mazraoui, Ziyech are nobodies, while overestimating kids like Pedri, Fati and Gavi. The kids were clueless against a rock solid experienced defense.
Morocco was the real dark horse of this tournament, I was on the edge of my seat till the end and I was elated when hakami scored that last penalty...we're proud to have them as representative of arabs 🇸🇦🇲🇦🇵🇸🇪🇬
You are wrong ,in the fifa procedure the morrocan is representing the african continent, it is about continent representation not a race. Morroco does not represent the Arab ethnic world, but only the african continent since is in North africa
@@smoreno5532 True, in fact all Moroccans, but also Algerians, Tunesians and Libyans carry Iberian blood. The Berber/Amazigh component (the indigenous ancestry of North Africa and should not be confused with Arab or "Islam") contains also Iberia_Neolithic, besides Natufian and Iberomaurusian. So its tied historically, anthropologically and by blood for a very very long time. Not strange, the distance is less than 8 miles. This is also the case for the Iberian people, they too carry some traces of Amazigh/North African genetic traces, and again, its much older than Islamic Iberia or The Moorish conquest. Its older( >Al Andalus)
@R Adriaan Have u seen the skin colour of the French squad, it doesn't matter. The Moroccan federation was keeping an eye on these players since they were teenagers in Europe and supported them financially and morally so they pledged their allegiances to the Moroccan team and here we are beating Spain. Their mothers are Moroccans, they have been brought up to believe in Moroccan values and they feel Moroccan so it is kind of bitter to say that. European teams are stealing talent from Africa as well look at Lukaka for example and where he was born so it evens out by the end.

Disagree. Morocco are a great team but Spain should be winning this game with the right approach. They have no plan b. They never try to cross or shoot from outside the box. Their offence is extremely predictable so it's a recipe for disaster when they go up against Morocco, who've been elite defensively. I think the biggest blame for this loss goes to Enrique.

What happened to Spain?! What happened to Belgium?! What happend to Croatia ?! They can not accept the fact that Morocco is a good team so they blame the opposite team for playing bad.
Morocco is well organized and those type of teams that wins tournaments. Morocco deserves to be where they are. But the quarterfinals is now the big league. They passed one Iberian side can they pass the other Iberian side? We'll see.

In my opinion, they're playing another, very boring, type of sport. In Brasil we call "bobinho" the game where one person is the bobo (the "dummy") who has to run around a circle of people passing the ball, trying to take the ball back. The player who loses possession becomes the new bobo. Spain plays 11 against 11 bobinho, a new, annoying and very boring modality.
@@leandrolapa8461 i think the spanish were trying to do something like what England did against Senegal, which is allow them to have the ball for the first half, then when they got tired in the second half, score many times over.

Probably he was too scared and under pressure. The only players who were completely comfortable from the first game with Croatia were those who play in good European football teams like Ziyech and Hakimi.
@@cinnaminson0653 all of them? Do you think that because someone moves away to raise children that makes them not ethnically Moroccan? Are you that ignorant?
With all due respect, and it’s true. Enrique deserves respect for the personal trauma he’s had to endure. But, on the flip side, there’s been a shocking level of arrogance from the manager through the entire tournament. His dismissive pregame comments towards Japan cost him. Than now not clearly doing his homework with the Moroccan opposition is dumbfounding
How can a coach pick his son-in-law who's a bench warmer and a sub at barca ,He left out Gerard Moreno , Iago Aspas and Borja Iglesias , he's the failure of spain world cup

We don't need their pathetic validation cuz we already know how many times they cheated im Russia but now they are shut down, let's celebrate and ignore those hypocrites
Spain have no plan B like the other top teams. Possession for possession's sake isn't going to work in 2022 like it did in 2010. Teams know how to defend now!
@@misslili9509 Morata scoring three goals but coming off the bench is weird. So many players that should not have been on the squad while Ramos, Iglesias, Nacho, Canales all left at home but Eric Garcia gets a spot? lol
Spain was speculating against Japan by not REALLY trying to win, in order to avoid Brazil and Argentina,and perhaps they thought Croatia was a more difficult team beat than Morocco? Now they paid the price. Good on them! .
I think it's obvious that they thought morocco would be easy and it's confirmed by espn that the coach himself didn't even know who morocco's no 8 is 😅
Morroco, Shaka, represents for themselves and for Africa, they were part of the 5 countries representing Africa... Get it right!!!... let's Go Morocco 🇲🇦🙌🏽💪🏾👏🏽
They are also representative of the Arabian world. That's pretty obvious. Only team I saw celebrating with the Palestine flag too. Shows how diverse the continent is to be honest. No disrespect. They are representative of every "small" nation in footballing terms around the world too.
@@keystone6162 We are African 1st, don't be like them and take that away from Us when we shine, it's hard enough to be African in this World, Shaka should hv started by saying Morocco, The African country, it's not too much to ask... About Palestine it was a shout-out to them, many countries and sport personalities do that because of what's going on in that area... Leyyy Go Morocco
@@douman74 did I ever say that they aren't representing Africa? Did I ever say that? Do you know what the word ALSO means? What am saying is this Morocco team is representing more than just Africa and that's a good thing. More power to them.
Yes indeed and Garcia is defending Enrique because he is a barca fan. How can he play llorente in rb when you have natural cavarjal and azpilicueta on the bench ? Playing rodri in cb for him to field his barca favoured barca trio? Why playing asensio in his unnatural position and not play morata and put asensio on the right where he shoots more and call up borja iglesias ?
Julian for no reason TWICE mentions Azzedine Ounahi is born in Paris, France it’s not relevant nor is true. He was born in Casablanca, Morocco. He’s pushing a French thing for no reason and can’t even get the basic facts right.
Ambrabat fought the midfield of spain by himself despite his backaches , he is just incredible and soon we will watch him destroying the players in the primer league
Possession without lack of urgency on the final third is pointless. Even Pep's Barca and Spain of old did not just pass sideways and backwards with no penetration - they were extremely urgent up front and knew how to create amazing chances.
No. Ofiicially Morocco represent Morocco, a North Africa country and secondly you could say that it represent the whole Islamic Ummah. Suppose that it was Japan, would it therefor "officially" represent the whole Asian continent? No. So why apply a different rule on Morocco.
@@MariaNI-yf1bz Yes Japan would represent the whole of Asia. Its your own bias coming through. Morroco is part of the continent of Africa whether they like it or not. Can't move a whole land mass. I also understand culturally and religiously they also have an affinity with the Islamic world.
Morocco had two chances that should’ve been finished. Spain was lucky to get to penalties. Spain hitting that post late notwithstanding. Morocco played great and Spain needs a 9
Jules ounahi is not born in France nor did he grow up there. He currently plays in France but he was born in morocco and brought up through Mohammed 6 soccer academy in morocco.
Man, the quality of your analysis is off the chart. Why would you neglect the Moroccan side of the game, focusing on bringing up Spain’s mistakes, as if the Moroccan team won just because Spain was bad?! You oughta be good. You didn’t do your homework either, putting just Enrique’s picture with Regragui’one nowhere to be found… Grand merci à vous, Julien Laurens, d’avoir eu la courtoisie de revenir sur le travail de l’équipe marocaine.
Because of the views. When Morocco become a nations that do these kinda of performances in every world cup. They'll talk about them a lot. It's just how it works. They give more time to teams that are well known and know a lot of details about them.
@@jamesjames4565 That’s just a fancy way to call unprofessionalism, the same way I call Luis Enrique missing the name of a Moroccan player. It’s unforgivable at that level. And your answer would have made sense if there wasn’t on that plateau Julien Laurens, who knows a lot about the Moroccan team. That much of unprofessionalism, I would call ignorance.
Not the coach fault Morocco was ready to die on the field and very concentrated mentally and physically last Spain was way too scared of Morocco counter attack 💯💯💯🇲🇦🇲🇦❤️❤️
Spain will always struggle against a well organized team and defense like Morocco. This Spanish team is a bit to predictable. You know exactly how Spain is going to play. Morocco simply prepared for Spain properly
I agree with you regarding Spain. But not only Spain, even Belgium and Croatia could not score against this Morocco team. They have only conceded 1 goal so far in the tournament. And the one goal they conceded was a own goal.
All the analytical dissection of Spain would be more convincing if they hadn't lost on penalties after it remaining 0-0, they would have lost before it went to penalties if they were that predictable + what top European team do you not have a pretty good idea how they're going to play??? None of them are going to be any kind of mystery, like Belgium, maybe they were too predictable, as well??? It's easy to be wise after the fact.............
It didn’t matter for us the ball possession or the high number of passess, Morocco team manager was smart he put the spain in the trap of the possession and at end the score that matters. Don’t forget that we as Morocco team are talented and have a lot of skills you can see boufal and oumahi how they played. But it was our strategy in the game. Hard luck to spain and i wish the best best best luck to our moroccan team to go more further possible. We trust our players and our manager and especially our amazing fans from all around arab countries we are proud of all of you guys. And proud to be moroccan forever.
Spain should have given up on this passing with no purpose when Bayer Munich destroyed Barcelona by 7 goals home/away champions league. Not only did they ended this style of football but they also showed how easy it's to break it & counter it. This is why Spain/Barcelona are done & haven't recover since but real-Madrid are doing same style as Psg,Liverpool,Bayern.
Spain woeful penalties Enrique said his team practiced yet no one wanted to go top corner. Look at Harry Maguire’s penalty vs Italy, one of the best you’ll ever see. Practice that daily!
Morocco deserves all the respect for the performance they have shown so far. It is already a brilliant World Cup for them. Valid Halilhodzic made a brilliant job in Morocco. ExYugoslav football school rocks. The Croatia/Morocco group proves to be one of the toughest groups of the tournament. Not a Mickey Mouse group like the England group or the Holland group.
Emm no? Actually it's pure Walid regragui work, the one who fixed the national team after fahid totally ruined it, went in conflicts with our most valuable players like ziyech, and yea lemme correct you, "it's called Moroccan football", thank you 🤝🏼
Halilhodzic made problems in the team as soon as he heard he might be changed, what kind of coach even tells his players you won´t win anything just participate. Keep your Yugoslav schooling
Firstly Morocco, congratulations they deserved to win. But I think Ramos (Sergio) should have been there. Because from a Corner he is the man you aim for...

Spain lose is not a surprise, the problem with some teams is that they think they are something they aren't, Spain isnt a expressive team in world cups, never was, they only have one big season in 2010...there's only 3 top national teams in terms of football in the world:Brazil, Germany and Italy, these 3 can have a bad season eventually, but they ALWAYS come back strong, the others just arent in the same level as good as they can be..
What about Italy with 4 titles? I know they have missed two WC's in a row now... but Germany has also been unable to make it past the group stages losing to Japan and South Korea in the last two WCs.
@@anantakhatri1444 that's what I said, Brazil, Germany and Italy are the biggest ones in football, they can have hard times but they will come back strong for sure.
Morocco outmuscled Spain and outran them. Pedri and gavi are great players but not very strong. They needed rodri in midfield more than they needed him at centre half. 1019 passes for Spain but only 10 shots and only 1 on target. There are ways to play teams that park the bus. Spain did the opposite. And clearly Spain need to practice penalties more. 1000 doesn't seem to be enough.
Thank you marocco, great team efford. I thought spain lost to japan on purpose, to not face brazil in the quarters. But the way they pass the ball from left to right, right to left all the time, without ever finishing makes me believe japan simply won because spain is not good enough
Wow! Morocco representing the Arab world! I must have missed the region's qualification stages for the world cup. Is it a new region of FIFA? What a way to erase Africa. Any way, Congrats to the Morocco that qualified under CAF and was one of 5 nations that represented Africa.
i was shocked..😬Morocco is in Midddle East now? wow... Morocco plays is African with Arabic accent...these ones are taking away credit from an African team..
Morocco was the underdogs and had already matched the best-ever WC for their country by getting into round-of-16. Spain, on the other hand, needs to practically get to final just to meet their country's expectations. The difference in pressure that each team is under was clear, and I think it was a massive factor in the shootout, with Spain's players under considerably more pressure than Morocco's.
This is so special for where I live in Andalusia Spain with a Massive Morroco population you can see the country across the Mediterranean ultural influence now they play there next closest nieghbours.great People.good luck I'm British so im England fan but next sure I'm Morroco 💚💙🧡

The penalty routines aren't just for show. Repeated behaviors and patterns that you do during practice are proven to settle your mental and physiologic response to stress when you are under pressure situations.
When they tied Croatia, Croatia was slagged off instead of Morocco given praise. They are organized and in your face all match. They are an incredible unit.

@blade risq amrabat is from psv Eindhoven academy which gave a lot better players to football than west ham.
Morocco is so composed, not very fearful, they're very organized and calm, didn't see much panic. Wow, it was a very good performance. 👏
If Chideera was 50% of Eneseeri, Morrocco would have won before the penalties.
Was he the one missed the one on one?Congrats to Morocco, 4 years ago they deserved to make it out of group stage. I’ll be rooting for Morocco. Respect from 🇺🇸
I think that guy was one of the worst morrocan player if they had a salah they could have gone all the way
Omg he was so bad

Probably he was too scared and under pressure. The only players who were completely comfortable from the first game with Croatia were those who play in good European football teams like Ziyech and Hakimi.

With all due respect, and it’s true. Enrique deserves respect for the personal trauma he’s had to endure. But, on the flip side, there’s been a shocking level of arrogance from the manager through the entire tournament. His dismissive pregame comments towards Japan cost him. Than now not clearly doing his homework with the Moroccan opposition is dumbfounding

Spain have no plan B like the other top teams. Possession for possession's sake isn't going to work in 2022 like it did in 2010. Teams know how to defend now!
They had David villa, and had players like iniesta like and Xavi that could open the game up.

@@misslili9509 Morata scoring three goals but coming off the bench is weird. So many players that should not have been on the squad while Ramos, Iglesias, Nacho, Canales all left at home but Eric Garcia gets a spot? lol
Spain was speculating against Japan by not REALLY trying to win, in order to avoid Brazil and Argentina,and perhaps they thought Croatia was a more difficult team beat than Morocco? Now they paid the price. Good on them!
.
I don't believe Spain was deliberately trying not to win as they faced elimination had Germany lost against Costa Rica

The middle East is part of the continent of Africa
They are also representative of the Arabian world.

Moroccan team is just good enough to defeat the giants! Credits to them!!
Penalty or not, congrats Morocco. CRAIG's spot on 🔥🔥🔥
Yes indeed and Garcia is defending Enrique because he is a barca fan. How can he play llorente in rb when you have natural cavarjal and azpilicueta on the bench ? Playing rodri in cb for him to field his barca favoured barca trio? Why playing asensio in his unnatural position and not play morata and put asensio on the right where he shoots more and call up borja iglesias ?
Ounahi was born in Casablanca Morocco not France. He is a product of a local football academy
Julian for no reason TWICE mentions Azzedine Ounahi is born in Paris, France it’s not relevant nor is true. He was born in Casablanca, Morocco. He’s pushing a French thing for no reason and can’t even get the basic facts right.
He forgot 90% of the French team is from Africa 😮
Congrats Morocco!! Very well deserved!
Ambrabat fought the midfield of spain by himself despite his backaches , he is just incredible and soon we will watch him destroying the players in the primer league
Morocco have a chance to win this World Cup and prove we live in a simulation 😎
Yes brother Scientific theories have proven that we live in a simulation. I'm moroccan and i believe that we can do it
The Moroccans showed possession doesn't mean as much as we thought
No one other than Barca fans care about possession
It's been proven since 2014, it meant alot from 2008-2012 since then it's been something that has been used as a crutch
Possession without lack of urgency on the final third is pointless. Even Pep's Barca and Spain of old did not just pass sideways and backwards with no penetration - they were extremely urgent up front and knew how to create amazing chances.

Mr. Shaka, officially Morocco is representing Africa!!!! Morocco made it through CAF (Confederation of African Football) qualification.
No. Ofiicially Morocco represent Morocco, a North Africa country and secondly you could say that it represent the whole Islamic Ummah. Suppose that it was Japan, would it therefor "officially" represent the whole Asian continent? No. So why apply a different rule on Morocco.
@@MariaNI-yf1bz Yes Japan would represent the whole of Asia. Its your own bias coming through. Morroco is part of the continent of Africa whether they like it or not. Can't move a whole land mass. I also understand culturally and religiously they also have an affinity with the Islamic world.

Man, the quality of your analysis is off the chart. Why would you neglect the Moroccan side of the game, focusing on bringing up Spain’s mistakes, as if the Moroccan team won just because Spain was bad?! You oughta be good.

Spain will always struggle against a well organized team and defense like Morocco. This Spanish team is a bit to predictable. You know exactly how Spain is going to play. Morocco simply prepared for Spain properly
I agree with you regarding Spain. But not only Spain, even Belgium and Croatia could not score against this Morocco team. They have only conceded 1 goal so far in the tournament. And the one goal they conceded was a own goal.
All the analytical dissection of Spain would be more convincing if they hadn't lost on penalties after it remaining 0-0, they would have lost before it went to penalties if they were that predictable + what top European team do you not have a pretty good idea how they're going to play??? None of them are going to be any kind of mystery, like Belgium, maybe they were too predictable, as well???
It's easy to be wise after the fact.............
Congratulations from Pakistan
We all are rooting for Morocco
It didn’t matter for us the ball possession or the high number of passess, Morocco team manager was smart he put the spain in the trap of the possession and at end the score that matters. Don’t forget that we as Morocco team are talented and have a lot of skills you can see boufal and oumahi how they played. But it was our strategy in the game. Hard luck to spain and i wish the best best best luck to our moroccan team to go more further possible. We trust our players and our manager and especially our amazing fans from all around arab countries we are proud of all of you guys. And proud to be moroccan forever.

Spain should have given up on this passing with no purpose when Bayer Munich destroyed Barcelona by 7 goals home/away champions league. Not only did they ended this style of football but they also showed how easy it's to break it & counter it. This is why Spain/Barcelona are done & haven't recover since but real-Madrid are doing same style as Psg,Liverpool,Bayern.
Love how Jules knows every single world player who is Paris bred or born in France or went shopping in France.
@@DrTopaz Was Casablanca ever a French colony? Maybe Jules sees all colonies (French or not) as a part of France.😀
If only there was a Spanish right footed center back who was excellent at penalty’s
Spain woeful penalties Enrique said his team practiced yet no one wanted to go top corner. Look at Harry Maguire’s penalty vs Italy, one of the best you’ll ever see. Practice that daily!
Morocco deserves all the respect for the performance they have shown so far. It is already a brilliant World Cup for them. Valid Halilhodzic made a brilliant job in Morocco. ExYugoslav football school rocks. The Croatia/Morocco group proves to be one of the toughest groups of the tournament. Not a Mickey Mouse group like the England group or the Holland group.
Emm no? Actually it's pure Walid regragui work, the one who fixed the national team after fahid totally ruined it, went in conflicts with our most valuable players like ziyech, and yea lemme correct you, "it's called Moroccan football", thank you 🤝🏼
It's hoalid regragui 😍 National Coach
Our coach isn't Halilhodzic anymore
Halilhodzic made problems in the team as soon as he heard he might be changed, what kind of coach even tells his players you won´t win anything just participate. Keep your Yugoslav schooling
Yes, one team in each group which is still in WC except group F with two teams. This is tough solid. No, I can understand belgium leaving early.

He was there in 2018 and ennesyri flew over him and scored a header
blame enrique for not taking most current or ex real madrid players because he's barcelonista ,,, it cost him the elimination of his country

Spain lose is not a surprise, the problem with some teams is that they think they are something they aren't, Spain isnt a expressive team in world cups, never was, they only have one big season in 2010...there's only 3 top national teams in terms of football in the world:Brazil, Germany and Italy, these 3 can have a bad season eventually, but they ALWAYS come back strong, the others just arent in the same level as good as they can be..
What about Italy with 4 titles? I know they have missed two WC's in a row now... but Germany has also been unable to make it past the group stages losing to Japan and South Korea in the last two WCs.
@@anantakhatri1444 that's what I said, Brazil, Germany and Italy are the biggest ones in football, they can have hard times but they will come back strong for sure.
Tiki Taka and technical football is long dead. It’s all about pace, power and strength. Bayern 8-2 Barca. Bayern 7-0 Barca proved it.
and Spain has been humiliated in World Cups since 2014 playing like that.

@@Rafa-vt9tb I mean their highest paid player is Haaland. Truly the definition of Pace Power and Strength.
Technical football will never die... look at Messi...
Morocco outmuscled Spain and outran them. Pedri and gavi are great players but not very strong. They needed rodri in midfield more than they needed him at centre half. 1019 passes for Spain but only 10 shots and only 1 on target. There are ways to play teams that park the bus. Spain did the opposite. And clearly Spain need to practice penalties more. 1000 doesn't seem to be enough.
The 1 on target was Olmo at the very end of the game. 😂
Spain has a great midfield but lacks a world class striker
Thank you marocco, great team efford.
I thought spain lost to japan on purpose, to not face brazil in the quarters.
But the way they pass the ball from left to right, right to left all the time, without ever finishing makes me believe japan simply won because spain is not good enough

Morocco was the underdogs and had already matched the best-ever WC for their country by getting into round-of-16. Spain, on the other hand, needs to practically get to final just to meet their country's expectations. The difference in pressure that each team is under was clear, and I think it was a massive factor in the shootout, with Spain's players under considerably more pressure than Morocco's.
thing is Spain got cocky after 2010. They've always been a team that got through groups and fell on the round of 16, maybe quarterfinals.

The penalty routines aren't just for show. Repeated behaviors and patterns that you do during practice are proven to settle your mental and physiologic response to stress when you are under pressure situations.
