    I’m genuinely worried Scotland might beat Brazil. 

    What a horribly unbalanced side.

    Christ I've been blindsided by how good Morocco are

    I went to PSV v Utrecht last season and Saibari was absolutely outstanding

    Proper counter attacking football. Modern footballers don’t know how to play against it.

    I'm getting triggered by the bottle tops on the pitch every hydration break! cant they just have a bin or something?

    Brazil full backs look weak.

    Remember in 82 that Brazil team was ridiculously good, probably the best team never to win it. rushed home from school to watch them throw it away against Italy. Zico, Socrates, Eder, Junior, amazing team. This team don’t have that quality.

    Lovely ball, lovely goal. I've got an accumulator of Morocco, Japan, and Turkiye to all win their groups. Cmon Morocco.

    Seems weird even saying it but if this is Brazil then Scotland will fancy their chances their midfield will kill this midfield of brazil

    Morocco so much quicker to the ball and such sharp passing, great to watch

    Makes Joao Pedro not being taken more puzzling. 

    Brazil's squad is so unbalanced it's wild that pundits actually spoke about them being one of the favourites.

    Well if Tom Brady is rooting for Brazil, I’m all in on Morocco.

    That’s a great finish too.

    McTominay and McGinn may actually bully Casemiro into retirement.

    Assume Morocco have seen Vinicius play before?

    And just like that, against the run of play, class shines through

    This is a proper game of football. Fuck all the politics, can’t beat a World Cup.

    This may be an unpopular opinion, but I always want Brazil to fail in the World Cup. Nothing against Brazilians, but I just find it nauseating the way everyone jizzes in their pants over them, even when they’re not all that. 
    And qualifying from South America is fucking ridiculous. Brazil (and Argentina) basically have a free pass every tournament.
    That 7-1 shoeing they got from Germany in their own backyard in 2014 was a thing of beauty. That Sideshow Bob looking Chelsea berk in tears was hilarious.

    Vini Jr goes to celebrate with the fans but they are 50ft in the air

    Is really nice to finally have a game with some quality in it. Feels like the WC has started.

    You'd do really well to get a booking for running into the crowd to celebrate here - unless you had a jet pack!

    Always pleased when Brazil lose. Overrated at so many tournaments and commentators drown in the use of clichés. Thankfully Neymar isn't playing...

    Annoying we'd have more decent group games like this with a 32 team World Cup.

    Really enjoyed that.  Nice battle of individual talent versus great team organisation and endeavour

    This is a serious game of football. Very impressed with Morocco’s speed, skill and athleticism. I’m certainly rooting for them. 

    Brazil are unbalanced and off the pace. They look and feel like a team with too many ‘celebrity’ players.
