In terms of value and popularity, Spain is definitely the favorite to win the Olympic Games, their senior team has just won the European Championship, and the entire team of Spain in this Olympic Games has reached 370 million euros, second only to the host France team. No matter how you look at Morocco, it is not an opponent, but will the truth be so simple?
After a brief review of Spain's Olympic games, this team is full of talent on the offensive end, but the team's biggest problem is that the defense is too abstract. In the group stage, they have fouled points, marked people from set-pieces, made mistakes and gifts, and conceded goals in various forms in all three games.
Although they kept a clean sheet against Japan in the last round, everyone who watched the game knew that Japan was suffering from the poor ability to seize opportunities, otherwise it would definitely create problems for Spain. And Spain took an early lead with Fermin's two-footed long-range shot, which was purely individual ability suppression.
And on the Morocco side, four of their 10 goals at this Olympics were penalties, is this luck? Definitely not!
This is because the Morocco player's individual ability to break through with the ball is too strong, and Morocco's forward arrow is the AFC Champions League final MVP Lahimi, who contributed 2 goals and 1 assist + red card + point creation in the second leg of this year's AFC Champions League final. In addition, Real Betis' Aboud and Yellow Submarine's Ahomack are also very strong players with breakthrough ability.
The opponent can't stop them from breaking through with the ball at all, so they can only foul and send points.
Not to mention that they also called up the strongest right-back in football, the big Paris supercar Achraf, you see how silky it is to break the ball and advance the shot in one go.
And Spain's backline of Cu Brazil and Garcia, although they performed very well at the club, the technical characteristics of these two central defenders are ball-oriented central defenders, although the skills at the feet are good, but the confrontation and marking ability at the defensive end is very poor, today Morocco's group of attackers, must not break Spain's defense into a sieve?
On the whole, this game not only supports Morocco to survive regular time, it is better to win Spain directly!
