Morocco deserving winners. So much for the Spanish coach's instructions for his players to practice 1000 penalty kicks each at their clubs after the last penalty kick loss.
The balls to Panenka that penalty! Keeper the hero, they're on a roll and we could play them in the Semi-Final...
According to my Burnley supporting mate one of their lads is in the Morocco squad, Anass Zaroury who doesn't seem to be getting much game time either.........
And another. Mbappe, having seen a couple of interviews with him (he speaks pretty good English, and Spanish) has all the makings of a new Ronaldo , in terms of self regard at least. 4. Portugal running wild, much better without the ego.
Portugal just look so much better playing with 11 players than having a passenger...... they look a real side now and playing some lovely football....... CR7 coming on for last 20 minutes and the crowd go wild for some reason.......
Free kick within shooting range and CR7 takes it and fails to score with his 333rd* free kick..... * A guess obvs but not far from the correct amount
This performance is the changing of the old guard for Portugal, they have some wonderful young talent coming through..... If CR7 and Pepe retire after this tournament then Portugal football is in good hands and they could be a force for years to come.......
