You can only tell them apart when closed to you. And maybe through the jersey number.

Ironically Saibari who scored the winning penalty grew up in the Netherlands

Up Morocco up Morocco. Jinx upon Netherlands they don't win penalty . Even when Rahimi played rubbish keeper push it inside . 2 European heavyweight sent packing . 1 African team and 1 Asian back home .

Yea.
Summerville rushed. A brief pause and low ball to the right and that ball would have gone in
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by AndSunGorilla: 4:57am On Jun 30
The Moroccans deservedly won. Make dem no try win world cup o. Zlatan and Henry don cook Koeman say dem no play with Dutch identity. Anyways congrats to Morocco.
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 4:57am On Jun 30

Did Gakpo really get injured or ran away from PK duties?
2 black players combined to get Netherlands their goal anyways. Havertz no be black man now. 2 UEFA teams out.

Exactly what I wanted to type.

Bono is a colossus in PK. He doesn't overcommit in PKs and has good secondary reflexes. Could also be from watching tapes and memorizing player PK routines
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by COOL10(m): 5:01am On Jun 30
How can you set up a Netherlands team to play defensively? What kind of nonsense is that? That was how he almost destroyed Barcelona's style of play with his nonsense football. Koeman should be sacked and he should retire from there abeg.

His players let him down. From VVD not picking up Issa Diop to let in that equalizer and the terrible PKs the player played.

Not a coaching problem.

Solid Dark horses:
- Brazil ✅️
- Germany❌️
- Netherlands❌️
- Belgium
- Croatia (coz of their last 2 WCs)
- Norway


Outside Force:
- Morocco ✅️

This is a world cup where goalkeepers are proving just how crucial they are.

The types of saves made and the mind games especially in penalty kicks is just incredible.

It's been a fabulous tournament so far.
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by solonnachi: 5:09am On Jun 30
Germany and Netherlands OUT

Who come remain?

Morocco plays Canada in next round. Walk over for Morocco.

The Dutch fell off since. Just look at their roster, and the clubs they play for and compare to dutch squads of yesteryears.

I rated Morocco higher and considered them better and favourites in this game.

Hatewatched Morocco but predicted them to win the game.

Hatewatch ❌
Prediction ✔️
