:clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: Morocco have shown us that: 1. Sustained investment in logistics and infrastructure works. 2. A “ local ” coach can get the job done. But how many of these players actually started their carreer in Morocco? You should give some credits to the european countries where mos...

Far too much sleepwalking from France, if they concede, they’re done. Coachito, but that's how they play. They never look particularly good, if good is possession and playing like Spain who are out of the tournament :biggrin: . They just look "average"--whatever that means--and win. :thum...

Not true. Argentina 1990, Brazil 1998. 1962 is the last time a defending champion won.

True. I was wrong.

It is the first time since 1962 that the defending champions plays the final.

It beats the one by Rossike some years ago, where he asked who was the smartest guy on CE.

If you feel that this Moroccan team is boring, check out the class of '86. That team had talent in abundance; Timoumi, Zaki, Aziz Boudebala, Merry Krimau to name but a few. But some of the stuff they played at the Mexico World Cup was a real borefest. Remember their matches against England and West...

How was France ahead of them in your rating? They have never reached a World coup final. Never won champions League? France have been more consistent and competitive in international competitions over a longer time. CL is Club football. Where do countries rind their talents? They are first groomed ...

It's crunch time tonight.

We need France's African legionnaires to stand up and be counted.

Tchouameni of cameroonian descent scored but also made thé foul that led to thé England goal.

There is a clear proof of something I Saïd earlier. That francophone countries get more from thé diaspora than anglophones, one. I Wonder why. Probably a couple of organizational things which make it easier to play for these countries. I would not lump all francophone countries together though. Mor...

They made thé semi finals first. So they are thé best Ever at thé WC. As far as other totales go, I would Say this is thé most disciplined African team ever

It is not like the Dutch were paragons of virtue either. Dumfires and a couple of other players where harassing every Argentine penalty taker as they stepped up tot take a penalty. Dumfires was yellow carded during the penalty, shoot out and again at the end of the match and ended up with red card....

I was disappointed that Argentina beat Holland, abi na Netherlands them dey call them these days? (I remember a timeline when it was just Holland that was used in the western world). Anyway, I hope Croatia does the right thing and boots Argentina out of the competition. I'll be rooting for Croatia....

I will support Croatia in the semifinal.
