I see loads of football tactictions on socials but the reality is if you havenโt played football or coached teams itโs impossible to fully understand tactics. Yes by watching you can learn loads but without the real experience its make belief.
Second half was much slower from both teams but Iโll take that from Morocco.
Overall Iโm impressed with the boys and hopefully more to come ๐ฒ๐ฆ
Stunning start to the game for Morocco and a fully deserved lead.
Loads of the game to play though.

Morocco starting 11 to face Brazil in the first group game looks good to me.
Who do you think wins?
BBC has a crazy new feature for World Cup games allowing you to watch games live (or play back) in this 3D space, freely controlling the camera angle or viewing it in any players' POV.
Imagine this for Defcon ๐คฉ

The World Cup is starting tonight but I just noticed the first 5 games:
Mexico vs South Africa
South Korea vs Czech Republic
Canada vs Bosnia & Herzegovina
USA vs Paraguay
Qatar vs Switzerland
This is an embarrassing situation.
I know loads wonโt care but I can see the implications and whatโs happening here. This is a fully qualified referee and yet he wonโt be able to work at the highest stage.
A top Somali referee will not officiate at the World Cup after being denied entry into the U.S. due to "vetting concerns".
Omar Artan, who was set to become the first Somali to officiate at a World Cup match, was stopped by U.S. Customs and Border Patrol when arriving in Miami ahead of the tournament.

World Cup ticket prices are embarrassing and sum up where football has gone.
Not feasible for normal working families and the irony is theyโre the families who produce the football players.
I know sports like Golf and F1 are for affluent people but football has always been the game of the estates and working class people.
Average cost of one ticket claimed to be $3,000 (ยฃ2,200) ๐คฎ
