Who do they get next round ? Portugal or Switzerland?

They’ll beat either of those

I voted Morocco

I said Morocco before they were added

That'll be me.

More than feasible that they will make me eat my words and, if they do, then massive kudos to them.

I actually hope they do win it now, it would do a power of good to a continent that, in the main, has suffered the shitty end of the stick for over a century.

Ah well, looks like Morroco aren't going to be proving me wrong, but they really had me hoping they would.

They've been the better team, apart from in the last third, one decent finisher and I feel we'd have seen a different story here.

Maroc weren't "plucky."
They played well and on another day...

I said Nigeria and my justification is quite simple. They have a young, booming population. When you have that, you surely have a large pool of elite athletes and if those athletes play football and get development, their program should explode.

If Nigeria could get all their players with Nigerian descent playing "Ireland style" they could win it?

I’ve been there several times and locals very pro UK

Food excellent too!

On the Marrakesh Express?
