Even before the two teams walk out on the Khalifa International Stadium turf, the Croatia-Canada Group F meeting was spiced up by Canada coach John Herdman stating in an interview, “I told them they belong here. And we’re going to go and eff Croatia.”
Croatia manager Zlatko Dalic responded to the same, “This way of putting words together is not a sign of respect.
The way we play, the way we behave and the way we respect all others are the reasons we are worthy of respect.”
After a stalemate of a first half, goals from Abdelhamid Sabiri and Zakaria Aboukhlal helped Morocco claim only their third win at the FIFA World Cup finals.
A 2-0 win against 2nd ranked side in the world, Belgium. A Group F clash that now puts Morocco on top of the table with four points in two games.
