FT: Morocco and Brazil share 1-1 draw

S

90+9' ALISON FUMBLES!

S

By Simon Smale

Neil El Aynaoui almost latched onto a loose ball after a diving Alison spilled it from a long range effort.

That was a big moment for Morocco.

90+7' Chance Morocco

S

By Simon Smale

Samir El Mourabet is caught after the Brazil defence just loses a bit of concentration and heads the ball straight up in the air instead of clearing it.

A central free kick that is sent straight into the hands of the keeper. What a waste.

90+3' Chance Brazil!

S

By Simon Smale

A rare sight at goal for Brazil as Danilo ill-advisedly tries his luck from an acute angle.

Not a great choice to shoot there - didn't have the angle.

90+2' Corner Brazil

S

By Simon Smale

The Brazilians get in behind through Raphinha down the left.

Brazil manage to refocus and regain possession but Hakimi gives away a corner.

A good chance for Brazil to get the ball to Matheus Cunha.

90+1' There will be 10 additional minutes at the end of this game

88' Another sub

S

By Simon Smale

The Morocco goal scorer is off, Saibari.

He is replaced by Soufiane Rahimi.

Morocco won't be

S

By Simon Smale

Would both sides be content with a draw at this point? Are structures indicating shop shut feom either side?

- Drew

I think they have been the better side.

But the pace has slowed considerably in the closing stages.

Morocco should be pushing for a winner though - they deserve it.

Another full house

84' CHANCE BRAZIL!

S

By Simon Smale

Oh that was a poor backpass and Yassine Bounou has to be alert to get out to the ball before Raphinha can capitalise.

This keeper must be made of glass because he is down once again.

Issa Diop must have had his heart in his mouth there.

Long delay while Bounou gets looked after but he'll be OK to continue.

80' Subs

S

By Simon Smale

Loads of them, both teams looking for the winner.

Bruno Guimarães is off for Brazil, with Danilo Santos replacing him.

Noussair Mazraoui and Bilal El Khannouss are off.

Anass Salah-Eddine is on, Ayoube Amaimouni too.

78' Chance Brazil!

S

By Simon Smale

Vinícius Júnior on the left again gets in behind the Morocco defence and cuts the ball back to Raphinha, but his shot is comfortably saved by Yassine Bounou.

He may have done himself a mischief here though - he's down holding his ankle.

That will give the coaches time to make some more subs I think.

77' Good chance for Morocco

S

By Simon Smale

That was a good chance there, the Moroccans moving the ball well and Chemsdine Talbi firing in a cross from the right side but Brazil clear.

72' Chance Morocco!

S

By Simon Smale

Chances have been few and far between in this half of football, but Morocco almost come up with one there, a lovely ball down the left side releasing Ismael Saibari in the penalty area.

He is offside as he rifles the ball into the side netting.

But it was an opening, however brief.

Is this a harbinger of Morocco starting to gain supremacy in the midfield again? Hard to tell yet, but that was some nice interplay.

67' Chance Brazil!

S

By Simon Smale

Raphinia slashes a cross through the six yard box.

And then he almost gets on the end of a cross from the right side after Brazil recycle the ball well.

Vinícius Júnior is on the right now and he was instrumental in that build up play.

Anyway, now it's time for a drinks/advert break.

64' Subs for Morocco, Fabinho deals with a blood issue

S

By Simon Smale

Interesting look for Fabinho, who is drooling blood like a tanned Dracula lookalike.

That's quite a grotesque grin.

Anyway, Morocco are going to make their first two changes of the match.

Chemsdine Talbi and Samir El Mourabet are coming on.

Bilal El Khannouss and Azzedine Ounahi make way.

62' Brazil changes

S

By Simon Smale

More Brazil changes.

Carlo clearly isn't happy with how things are going.

Matheus Cunha and Endrick are coming on, Igor Thiago is off and Lucas Paquetá has made way too.

58' Very even passage of play

S

By Simon Smale

Neither side are able to fashion any opportunities at the moment, the game has settled into a bit of a pattern.

The Brazil changes seem to have evened out the midfield battle.

It's tense out there.
