What's the Best Tactical Thing of the World Cup?
Low blocks have been like a theme for years because there's always going to be a massive talent differential. What we've seen from Morocco is really good low block football, right? They have this perfect structure that allows them to cause teams problems when they're attacking and they're able to fall into that structure. It was really entertaining to watch them play against France. I know they weren't really low blocking as much, but it's good football. And that's why Morocco were great because they weren't just good at defending. They were good at attacking as well.
