They had a lot to say about the game beforehand.
It was quite niggly, quite a bit of beef, and it all seemed to stem from a comment from Mike Grilla, who was a player that I saw at Leeds forward for a while, and not big name by any stretch.
We'd called them a lay-up in that group, but easy win.
So they were talking big beforehand, Australia, and they didn't really show up.
But you're right, there was almost a big scuffle towards the final minutes of the game, and I'd be lying if I said that we weren't sitting there going, oh, go on, yeah, go on, this could be good.
Yeah, it's kind of twice Morocco have done that.
They did the same against Brazil, looked great.
And they are lovely to watch when they get into the flow.
But I think somebody else is making the point that it's almost like Morocco are kind of caught between the new form of Morocco and the old form of Morocco and haven't quite moved from one to the other.
And Scotland were probably the better team for the first half.
half hour, I would say, without being great across the whole game.
I mean, I read beforehand Steve Clarke saying that the training sessions had been electric, his word.
And he must have been going at Grant Hanley with a taser because, like, two minutes in, there's a big dogleg in the defence.
Hanley is out of line with everybody else.
Saibari goes through and scores.
And against Morocco, you did think, well, that's probably Curtin's.
And you're right.
Ole's round the stadium after four minutes.
That must be a record as well, you would think.
World Cup record.
