This group is going to come down to who slaughters Haiti by the most goals, isn't it?


Haitians are use to being slaughtered
My gummy-bear died. My unicorn ran away. My imaginary friend got kidnapped. The voices in my head wont talk to me.
I've got a red bull. So I got that going for me.

Morocco's #6 is a really good holding midfielder

Agree. He has dominated that area against the Brazilians.

The way this game started I can't believe it's still just 1-1.

This game feels like a knockout round match.

Truly one of the best matches so far.

Ayyoub Bouaddi. He's being hyped as one of the best young midfielders in the world and is probably gonna make a move to a big club. I know a lot of Arsenal fans want to bring him to London

Haiti doesn't have a social media team?

As a very casual fan was it that the defenses of these two teams were that good or were the offenses just that bad (only saw second half)? It felt like lots of bad dribbles and passes compared to what we saw last night in the US game.

I didn't watch much qualifying. How does a failed state like Haiti get into WC? Are they borrowing players?

I can believe it. Was just watching Morocco constantly recycle and switch the field back and forth through #6 and is passing and distributing is perfect.

AI:

Haiti qualified for the 2026 FIFA World Cup by finishing at the top of Group C in the decisive third round of the CONCACAF qualifiers. They secured their historic spot with a decisive 2-0 victory over Nicaragua, finishing above Honduras, Costa Rica, and Nicaragua to cap a remarkable 52-year absence from the tournament

No. Only one of their players is currently playing in the domestic league. Everyone else plays in Europe or North America. They played no home games during qualifying and still made it through

Well, that's impressive although I might argue playing at home in Haiti would not be an advantage.

I have to think it would come down to which team the warlords decided to shoot at.

I think I saw an article where the HC for Haiti said he's never actually stepped foot in the country

This is all making more sense now. More than half the team not from there and this. Talking about a country that literally had a cannibal warlord in charge a couple of years ago.

It's not very conducive for building a world class sports team.

Morocco is good. But Brazil sucked. I'm married to a Brazilian and watch a lot of their matches. They haven't been "brazil" for a while. Started with Neymar and down hill ever since.

They don't have an identity, dont really have a many special playmakers.

Today their touch was poor, their vision was poor, the right side was non existent and very poor. I dont know if the world caught up with them or if they are just in a decade long relative talent drought

I liked the two random Asians in the crowd that the camera chose to feature during the Haitian anthem.

I don't think it can be appreciated properly until one's blood alcohol level is at least 0.12.

Alas, I am sober.
