"I talked about why I believed Morocco had a chance to win, and what I said off the top was the option to just play no center forward. And I understand Rahimi is not a special player, and he has missed big chances. There was no outlet for Morocco. There was no central piece to the attack to play central through. And every time they did pass midfield, it was two wingers on the left, one winger on the right, a right back on the right, and nothing down the middle. France could press high because there was no outlet, and then France could push numbers wide and close things down. But even when Morocco created space down the wings, there was nothing to cross to. France wanted Morocco to create space down the wings and get Hakeemi forward, because every time he went forward, they just attacked that space. France watched what Canada did against Morocco and said, let's do that with much better players. And they did. And Didier Deschamps, he got this one exactly correct. They smothered Morocco so emphatically, it was like they were not even in the game. And then they were ruthless about finding those spots. They weren't ruthless in front of goal. It never felt like Morocco was going to find a goal."
