Morocco, after topping Group F in front of Croatia and Belgium, then eliminating Spain, is becoming another favorite to win the world crown, notes the German magazine.
“The Moroccan defense is outrageously good. Morocco has conceded only one goal in the tournament, and that was an unfortunate goal against Canada. The attacking stars of Croatia, Belgium and Spain have not been able to break through the defensive bulwark around captain Romain Saïss,” the same source notes.
In addition, Morocco has world-class fullbacks, such as Achraf Hakimi and Noussair Mazraoui. An occupation that Germany can only dream of. The young Moroccans are both more than solid in defense, but can also develop their full offensive power, Sportschau continues.
“And even if the Moroccan defense misses a ball, the goalkeeper Yassine Bounou is always there. He is already a national hero thanks to his saves against Spain,” the magazine noted.
Up to 30,000 Moroccan fans make every World Cup match a home game, noting that it’s no wonder Morocco is so impressive at the World Cup. “With such passionate fans, it’s hard to lose,” it reads.
