Holy crap that was awesome. A slightly different bounce away from 1-1.

His last match was awful.

That bike was 3" away from being one of the best goals in WC history.

Morocco carrying a little momentum and confidence into halftime.

I am really enjoying watching these guys play. Morocco is running right at France, taking guys on directly when they're on the attack, trying to go through them rather than pass around them. It's led to a couple of French chances but I like that they're being aggressive.

This has been a fun game so far.

Is he worse than others though? Officiating has been horrible this tourney, and I've thought the CONCACAF crews have at least been halfway decent.

Mbappe baits the tackle and then gets hurt lol. You technically were asking for it

Barton had been very good. I thought he deserved a KO match. Elfath has been very good to exceptional. Ramos has been average to bad.

Idk guys, I got home and turned the game on with 10 minutes left in the first half, and from what I've seen, Morocco is outplaying the frogs…

Morocco seems like they've found something here.

France can score in the blink of an eye but Morocco has looked great the last nine minutes.

For the period of time you've been watching you're right.

Ramos is just so bad. That's a foul and card on the Mbappe tackle.

France will concede. Tale as old as time. Frogs surrendering leads.

why is the offsides call so late, recent thing?? seems like the players expend a lot of energy until the play is done.
I wanna see our defense pissed off, not confused, maybe a little murder in their hearts Reload12, 11/4/11

I like letting it go if it's close but that was VERY obvious.

That's what I was thinking. When it's that obvious, all you're risking at that point is player injury…

France can't buy a foul at the moment.

How did the arm bar in the back hurt Thuram's hamstrings?

France has looked a lot better since making the change. Morocco doesn't seem to be having the same success down France's left since Thuram has been over there.

Started a few years ago in case there is a goal. I get keeping it down if it is close. But a number of these are egregiously off and all they are doing is potentially hurting a player.

Last Moroccan foul should easily have been a yellow on that breakaway.

Like concacrap, I think this ref is afraid of the Moroccan crowd.

I always wonder how well the European elite would play under CONCACAF rules in CONCACAF stadiums.

Do any of y'all know what the gambling odds of Morocco winning the World Cup we're before the tournament started?
