    Upamecano was weak last game. I didn't think Rabiot was, though.

    Reportedly, a cold. There were some questions about Upamecano's fitness too.

    Hernandez seemed like a weak link, though he had been very good in
    previous games.

    And he promptly scores.
    The Moroccan defense, so brilliant up to this point, makes a complete mess of everything on that play.

    Morocco with some nice moves, but France defending well, and they always can sting on the break (Giroud already with a post and a big miss).

    Big support for Morocco on the stands.

    El Yamiq close to scoring the goal of the tournament with an overhead kick, but it hits the post.

    HT: 1-0

    I think it's more likely that France scores one or two on the break, but I wouldn't be shocked if Morocco were able to grab an equalizer.

    Mbappe victim of a couple of robust challenges.
    Morocco are getting in a lot of good positions, but so far few good shooting chances.

    France had looked a bit more comfortable in the past few minutes (Morocco tiring, or the quality of their subs much lower than the starters), and now Muani taps in the 2-0 following a deflected Mbappe shot

    Countless uncalled fouls. Some of them in the french box. Until this is not sorted out that's not football.

    France most likely will win it. It would be nice if Messi played a great game and led the team to the title, but I don't see it happening.
