How good are Morocco that Chair can't even get off the bench? Still at least it keeps him from getting injured and keeps him out of the shop window.
Belgium look ****e, Morocco deservedly lead. Manager been in charge for 5 games and they still haven't conceded a goal ! Maybe we should be trying to get him in
The further Morocco go, the less chance there is that Chair will be available for the Burnley game. And he ain't even gonna see a minutes play !
Some crazy results so far this WC, and today Costa Rica, who were totally ****e v Spain, beat Japan giving Germany a chance to get through to next stage, although defeat v Spain will make that difficult.
Oh no, when it rains.......just before half-time, just like against Belgium! Lot of work to do in the second half to turn this around.
Given today's other results, if Canada were to win (which is still possible) I had been thinking that these group stage qualification rules might come into play:- What are the tiebreakers for the group stage at the World Cup? If two or more teams have an equal number of points after the conclusion of group stage matches, FIFA will use the following tiebreakers to determine which nations advance: Goal differential – the team with the higher goal differential (total goals scored minus total goals allowed) will have the higher ranking Number of goals scored – If multiple teams have the same number of points and equal goal differential, the team with more goals scored will be given a higher ranking than the lesser-scoring team World Cup draw rules If two or more teams are still “tied” after applying these tiebreakers, FIFA moves on to a second round of tiebreakers: Greatest number of points obtained in group matches between the teams concerned Superior goal difference resulting from the group matches between the team concerned Greatest number of goals scored in all matches between the teams concerned Highest team conduct score – team conduct score is based on the number of yellow and red cards a team has obtained. The team with the highest team conduct score will receive the higher ranking. Yellow Card: Minus one point Indirect Red Card (acquired via two yellow cards): Minus three points Direct Red Card: Minus four points Yellow Card and Direct Red Card: Minus five points https://soccer.nbcsports.com/2022/1...stage-tiebreaker-rules-at-the-2022-world-cup/
Just naivety in this situation unfortunately, the defensive gaps Canada have left is reminiscent of the hoops. Still think Canada have given a good account of themselves, and will be even better in 4 years time. Good to see Celtic have a deal in place to sign Canada's worst player Johnstone in January lol.
