Surprise surprise - another day of 1-0 score lines. I believe that makes 9 so far.

-1 ( +1 / -2 )

Morocco deserved better than this score line. The US ref was a bit star struck I fear. There were some glaring mis-calls that would have leveled the filed for the Moroccans, but I guess FIFA really wants Ronaldo to go as far as he can.

7 ( +7 / -0 )

I feel for Moroccan fans, they outplayed the Portuguese and had chances to level the game on a few occasions. The ref also made some questionable choices against the Moroccan team in the first half.

Pepe really needs to stop with his antics though, even his teammates are getting annoyed by them. I won’t be surprised if he lands a red card during this competition.

6 ( +6 / -0 )

Portugal looked like a one-trick pony, tired and disjointed. Really scrappy. Morocco on the other hand were precise and organized, and looked stunning for most of the game; aside from the dirty play it was a shame they did not score as they really deserved more to go through.

5 ( +5 / -0 )

Morocco were unlucky not to score, for most of the match they were the better team.

4 ( +4 / -0 )

Morocco were excellent second half and deserved a point at the very least.

Portugal won the Euros with pretty stale football. It would be sad to see them go all the way here.

5 ( +5 / -0 )

GOAT ... Greatest Of All Time ... grows a goat-beard (goatee). Any questions?  

Not Messi, not Pele, not Diego the crime boss ... no one was better than Cristiano Ronaldo!

0 ( +0 / -0 )

The second game were Morocco had deserved more as they were often the better team.

Portugal however has a lethal weapon doing very well :)

0 ( +0 / -0 )
