Tuesday is the last day of the 2022 FIFA World Cup before it will be our first rest day from the start in Qatar and Morocco against Spain in Al Rayyan. The Atlas Lions and La Roja will meet at the Education City Stadium for a place in the quarter-finals, after the Spaniards finished second in Group E and the Moroccans topped Group F.
This game promises to be as good, if not better, than the Portugal-Switzerland that follows at 2:00 PM ET and the winners of Tuesday’s doubles matches will face each other in Doha on December 10th. It’s already set so we’re here to see who will make up half of the fourth and final pairing.
Luis Enrique’s men did not reach the heights of their impressive opening day after beating Costa Rica, while Walid Regragui’s side surprised many with the way they controlled their group despite the presence of Croatia and Belgium that looked difficult on paper. Vatterini reached the quarter-finals after defeating Japan on penalties, and could their team-mates join them in Group F?
