Morocco

Morocco has shattered the tables in the World Cup, winning Belgium, Spain and Portugal en route to the Semi finals , can they cement this African record ?

Walid Regragui is already the World Cup’s most impressive manager but so much would look to be out of his hands and in those of the Moroccan medical and physio teams’ now. Every other one of the semi-finalists held a training session on Sunday. Morocco’s media schedule simply read “rest day”.

France at it again

England threw everything they had and still Didier Deschamps’ side found their way through what was arguably the toughest match of this World Cup campaign…or their last.

France can beat you in so many ways but they appear to have found real comfort in beating you on the break. Their midfield sat deep and was more than happy to let England try to break them down, with Deschamps’ side content with 36% possession.

They have conceded in every game here yet never more than once, and clearly back their attacking quartet to get the job done at the other end. As much as Kylian Mbappé and Olivier Giroud have grabbed records, headlines and man-of-the-match gongs, it is Antoine Griezmann who has been their subtle destroyer.

In both knockout matches they have found themselves two goals to the good with 20 minutes to go and contrived to throw away one win and almost lose aanother

Can Argentina stand another disappointment

Argentina

A campaign that started not with a wobble, so much as a lurch towards the exit door before they’d properly made their entry is still on track. But if that collapse against Saudi Arabia was their first falter, there have been two serious repeats since.

In both knockout matches they have found themselves two goals to the good with 20 minutes to go and contrived to throw away one win and almost lose another.

The Dutch free-kick routine which brought us to extra-time was brilliant from an Oranje perspective but brainless stuff from Argentina.

They almost contrived to let the Socceroos do the same at the death in the last 16.
