Morocco have an opportunity to end their fairytale World Cup run with the consolation prize of a bronze medal as they face Croatia in the third-place playoff on Saturday.
The Atlas Lions have won many people’s hearts with their fearlessness, tenacity and defensive solidity and while they face what coach Walid Regragui has described as ‘worst game,’ they have to be ready for the contest at Khalifa International Stadium.
It’s the second meeting between the two teams, having faced off on matchday one, a match that ended in a barren draw, but with fatigue and the disappointment of missing out on the final, the tactical approach is likely to be different.
Regragui’s charges have been decimated by injuries heading into the match and a number of changes especially, in defence, will be made. GOAL predicts how Morocco will line up against Croatia.
