What happened to Eden Hazard, when he left; he left as the best player in English league.

If Morocco had a decent striker they could be a problem. Feels like we could say that about 28 teams in this tournament.

This game so far sums up this World Cup in a nutshell. Just so bereft of any quality in the final 3rd.

Feels like most the games are 0 - 0 at HT and end low scoring. There’s hardly any exciting moments during most of them as well. It’s hardly box-office. Even players/teams usually reliable are having heavy touches, overhit passes, etc.. with a few exceptions.
That's fair, we no longer got two top 5 players at their very best either (we've been spoiled in that regard) but otherwise it's not too bad, lots of upsets as well which i enjoy so there's that.

Annnd we've got ourselves another upset.

Deserved, C'mon Morocco, enjoyed their approach.

Morocco deserved that. They're a better team with better players than Belgium (KDB the obvious exception)
