    At this stage the occasion obviously plays a big part too. France as reigning World Champions won't be nearly as affected as Morocco. Wouldn't surprise me to see an early, uncharacteristic mistake that effectively ends the tie.

    Apparently at least one Inter Milan player has featured in every World Cup final since 1982.

    QPR nearly had a player in the 2014 final. Brazil's goalkeeper Julio Cesar was playing for us at the time but was on the wrong end of a knife-edge 7-1 defeat in the semi-final against Germany...

    I was hoping Japan would make it far due to the Celtic connection.

    Will see what Morocco are made of here, to be fair they've responded well so far but can see France exploiting the gaps.

    French have enough talent to not only go back-to-back, but become a 3-time champ like Randall Bailey

    Morocco actually look really good going forward but I think the occasion has got to the defenders. Silly mistakes.

    They left out Kyogo! Then started every game with Maeda. Was a surprise.

    Sometimes a team gets away with it and then when they get caught out, it's all at once in one game.

    That's what I see so far.

    Could ,should be 2,3.

    Should def be 2. I was at the shop getting beers and missed the goal so not sure how dominant France were in the opening stages.

    Morocco are creating openings but not committing enough players forward, which they'll need to do to hurt France.

    Ziyech is a good little player. He's been shit for Chelsea which I'm pleased about but he was excellent when Ajax made that run to the CL semis a few years ago before shitting the bed against Tottenham.

    Na, defender got the ball and followed through to the Moroccan player who was running in. Wasn't a pen but wasn't a yellow either.

    Morocco need to get to half-time at 1-0, they're getting overrun a bit here...

    Loris really has turned in a solid last 120 minutes or so. Clutch performances so far. Commentators still lashing shade on him.
    He'll probably fuck up now....

    He's always been a good goalkeeper, but one of those who has a fuck-up in him. Typical Spurs player tbh.
