On the last date of Group B of the 2018 FIFA World Cup, the teams from Spain and Morocco will face each other in Kaliningrad. The Spaniards are first in the zone and will look to seal their pass to the round of 16, while the Moroccans were already eliminated and only seek to complicate things to their rival before returning home.
Spain in his last appearance against Iran, the team under
Fernando Hierro took a tight 1-0 that allowed him to get his first world
triumph and finish first in Group B. After the draw against Portugal in the match,
La Roja added to three points to be a leader in your area. The possibilities
place the Spaniards in the round of 16 of the Football World Cup: they will play against the last of the group,
who no longer have a chance to advance in the round.
Despite having arrived as one of the favorites to the Soccer World Cup, Spain suffered the departure of Julen Lopetegui 48 hours after his
debut and the subsequent draw at the premiere. The game against the Iranians
did not give many guarantees for the European national team, which was unable
to impose its usual game to far surpass an opponent that was supposed to be
inferior. The victory is the only result that guarantees Spain not to depend on
any other marker to be among the 16 best in Russia.
Morocco says
goodbye to the FIFA World Cup. Despite
having been tied throughout the match, the debut ended with a lapidary 0-1 on
the scoreboard for the Moroccans against Iran. That result forced them to go in
search of a victory against Portugal on the second date, which they did not
get: they were again overcome by the same result and were eliminated from the
tournament. With a final match to be played in Russia, the French-run team
Hervé Renard will try to embitter Spain's hopes for a return to a World Cup
after 20 years. Despite having competed at a good level and having lost by the
minimum in both presentations, Morocco says goodbye to the World Cup and will
try to do it with three points that would mean a less painful goodbye.
