Verdict Belgium vs Morocco: Pinning "Red Devils"

Belgium has achieved its goal on the opening day when winning all 3 points against Canada. However, it would be reluctant to say that the top star of coach Roberto Martinez has played well.

During the whole match, the team currently ranked second on the FIFA rankings had exactly 1 goal thanks to Michy Batshuayi's work. Belgium's ball control rate is also only 54%, not much higher than Canada. In fact, if Alphonso Davies successfully completed 11 meters for the North American team in the 11th minute, it is unknown what will happen to Belgium.

With what has been shown, no one is sure that Belgium will overcome Morocco, the team has shown their discomfort by holding Croatia 0-0 in the first match.

Compared to Canada, Morocco is considered more dangerous thanks to owning in the squad many names playing in Europe such as Achraf Hakimi (PSG), Noussair Mazraoui (Bayern Munich), Youssef En-Nesyri (Sevilla) or Hakim Ziyech (Chelsea).

Not to mention, Morocco also has a series of 8 consecutive matches without losing, 6 of which keep a clean sheet. More than 10 years ago, Morocco competed with Belgium and won with a score of 4-1. Obviously, the next 90 minutes will not be easy for Belgium.
