What the heck is Enrique smoking? Gavi in the team after two senior league games? Eric Garcia? Por Luis Alberto man.
YEN was called up for the Morocco NT after all. They’ll play 3 matches, 2 against Guinea-Bissau and 1 against Guinea - YEN is expected to feature in at least 2 of them.
So it seems that 2 months out news was definitely bs and he’ll be available for us as soon as for the match vs. Celta.
Assuming that he doesn’t get hurt again
How dare you !!!
There are great anthems and not so good anthems but few countries sing them from the heart like Italy.
First loss for Italy incoming after a long long time.
Spain almost found a way to blow it and probably should have.
Morocco beat Guinea 5-0, Bono with a clean sheet while Munir played the last 25 minutes and notched a goal. En Nesyri didn’t travel apparently.
Good that he didn’t. It would’ve been an unnecessary risk as he’s still not 100%.
I think YEN will be out a few more weeks. Maybe by start of November we might have him back fit.
If he’s injured that bad, it doesn’t make sense to travel to Morocco either. Why would you fly him in? Just call up a different striker then. If they call him in, he will make minutes.
Morocco has a decent NT to be honest - they could seriously challenge for the CAF 2021 (which takes place in January 2022) and could qualify for the 2022 WC in Qatar.
Hakimi is one of the best modern RB’s in the world and they also have the top class Bono, YEN, superstar Munir , Saiss, Amrabat, Barkok, YEN, Ziyech… all decent prospects.
Kounde goes 90. Interesting that France shifted to a 3 man back line for this match.
Acuña off with an injury… hopefully not too serious
well shit!
Weird that Sevilla requested that YEN stay back because of injury but Morocco forced the travel because they wanted to medically evaluate the player. Something to keep an eye on for January.
Kounde starting again in the 3 at the back formation of France. Our January prospect (fingers crossed) Tchoumani starting too. Rooting for France in this one!
That Mbappe goal looked totally offsides. The commentators thought so too, yet they never showed the VAR review with the lines on the field showing him to be clear. Maybe from another angle he was good, but from the viewers view, it looked like a gift to France.
France v Spain, I can’t say anything about that abomination of an offside
decision that would convey how seriously the game has fallen. It squishes the relevance of football and totally demeans the integrity of the sport.
If that is the future, I’m out.
We’re seeing it with penalties too… all the time. VAR doesn’t seem to be the universal perfect solution for football for now. I think it either needs to be more technologically advanced, like in a FIFA/PES game or something, or it will always cause debates.
