FIFA World Cup 2022 Quarter-Final ** spoilers ** [9th - 10th December 2022]

All these teams must be thankful for Sean Dyche teaching them all how to play.

It's a perfectly legitimate way to play. Why on earth would Morocco want to go toe to toe with a team Portugal in a game of pass and move? If you want to win a world cup you have to beat the Moroccos as well as the Brazils.

Otherwise, you might as well just pick the 8 teams with the best players and go straight to the quarter finals.

Souness just said they need to bring someone on to drop a shoulder and take a man on and Ronaldo’s the man. Has he watched him recently?

 

[Droolinggimp]

omg Pepe, diving ****

 

[Stu999]

wtf with all the play acting from portugal

I hope they lose. I hate this behaviour.

 

[Psycho Ned]

Fair play we crucified the ref yesterday but this one has taken very little of Portugals **** so far.

He's gonna get a lot more of it in the next 40 minutes as well!

 

[manic111]

Great cross - someone should be scoring that

 

[el_dazza]

In what minute will Portugal get their suspicious penalty then?

Agree, he's been good so far. They're clearly going to get a spawny 89th minute penalty though

Same, women's was so much better when there was such little play acting. Men's game is pathetic for it.

In what minute will Portugal get their suspicious penalty then?

Approx 3 mins before Ronaldo misses it

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

196 caps is obscene.

 

[Droolinggimp]

ooh CR7 coming on. wonder if he will perform this time

At what point in the sport will this *********** diving/playacting/simulation behaviour become punishable in the sport? Ruins the game at times.

 

[manic111]

Course he will, his diving and complaining is straight out of RADA

 

[muon]

Why are they taking so long to do that sub?

Probably made his injury much worse.

 

[Tombstone]

To put this into context, if Morocco win this, they will have beaten Belgium, Spain and Portugal and drawn with Croatia, in this World Cup. Pretty darned good.

And as an addendum to this, they will have beaten those whilst also only conceding 1 goal. Thats a tougher set of opponents and a better record than many of the quarter finalists. Some achievement

 

[Droolinggimp]

lol that cheer

 

[manic111]

Boufal is having a fantastic game

 

[mysticsniper]

Go on Morocco

This

This is last chance saloon for Ronny isn't it? For a chance to win the WC.
