Morocco might be one for the hardcore hipster. They're GD was 11-0 in the toughest group in African qualifying and have a decent mix of younger talents (Ziyech, Harit, Hakimi, etc) with older veterans in their squad (captained by Benatia) and have a dashing frenchman coach that's won the ACN twice. They are North African so technically sound, they remind me of 2014 Algeria who got out of their group and only lost to Germany in ET

If their draw had been a bit kinder to them, they might've been one of the surprise packages of this tournament

I’m wondering who is going to start at fullback for France for my fantasy team. Deschamps hasn’t made his choice yet apparently.

I think Morocco's chances improved a lot after today's events.

The VAR nonsense needs to stop. Stop talking about it, it was a great decision.

VAR could go really well this tournament, but every little decision is going to be torn apart to a point where people think the system failed.

The governor of New Jersey placed the first legal bet today in the state. $20 on Germany to win the World Cup.
