I have got what I wanted from the consolation game today. I was expecting Croatia to be the winner against Morocco after a competitive game. Morocco didn't have as many goal attempts as their opponent maybe but they still managed to keep the score at the level they would like. They were really quick about an answer to Gvardiol's goal.

However Orsic's marvelous goal to the right corner sealed the deal for Croatia. I think both of these teams deserve appreciations because of their big efforts so far. Especially Morocco have become the first team reaching the semi finals in Africa continent for the first time.

It was actually closer than I thought. Croatia is built to break down the defense of a team like Morocco. Was thinking they were gonna win by 2 or 3 goals. Overall good showing by both teams throughout the entire world cup well done.

Morocco strategy was defensive throughout the World Cup. It worked till quarter finals but not against teams like Frace and Croatia. Morocco will take with them lots of experience which will definitely help them in improving performance in upcoming matches. Morocco also has given a message to all Africans teams that we too can compete and win fifa worldcup.

Morocco deserve an accolade for making Africa proud, reaching a pedestrian that no African country has been able to get to in the history of world cup tournaments. Even though Morocco never clinge a third place against Croatia it doesn't change the fact that they have written their name in marble. At this stage of the world cup we have always had only the likes of South American and European countries but just like you rightly said, Morocco has open a centre stage for other African countries to aim at winning the world cup next time and not just as participant.
